Hi, Chris.
Well, I think I spoke too soon. Mom was complaining about her nose hurting and when I took a look at it, the skin had broken terribly!
So, the band-aid lasted close to a year, but not anymore.
I agree. The problem is that Mom is on the bipap 24/7, she can never get any relief from the pressure on her nose.
I took a piece of Alyven (sp?) foam that we used to help keep pressure off her back wound and put it under a band-aid just for last night. Today, I may put a duoderm on. The nurse will look at it tomorrow. The "comfort care" may be the thing, too. Let me know how you make out.
Good luck and God bless,
