Why is it so hard to open the packaging that plasters come in especially when you have cut your hand

    Which bit of the packaging in particular, Lotsofpain? We no longer buy the variety pack of sealed plasters, we opt for the strip which can be cut as needed and, on my better days when I can use scissors, I cut a selection so that the correct size is there when needed. DD

    The answer is simple.
    It's just one of the many elements of ****'s law.

    I use rolls of micropore with either cotton wool, gauze or wound dressing depending on what the wound is.

    I agree plasters are tricky packaging, but i also like DD's suggestion - something that will work better I think

    I don't use plasters I clean the cut with T tree oil then stick it together with super glue it works a treat they heal within a few days as well as air can still get to it, it's what doctors us a lot off today and it works really well.
