adhesive bandages

Adhesive bandages, commonly called band-aids, are small strips with a sticky side that attach to the skin. They have a soft, absorbent pad in the center to cover and protect a minor wound, like a cut or scrape, keeping it clean and helping it heal. The adhesive keeps the bandage in place, preventing dirt and bacteria from entering the wound. They are easy to apply and come in various sizes and materials, making them a practical first aid tool for minor injuries.
