cellulose dressings

Cellulose dressings are wound coverings made from a natural plant fiber material called cellulose, which is lightweight, breathable, and highly absorbent. They help manage wounds by absorbing excess fluids, keeping the area moist to promote healing, and protecting against infection. These dressings are flexible and gentle on the skin, making them suitable for various types of wounds, including leg ulcers, burns, or surgical sites. They are often used because they support a clean environment for healing while providing comfort and ease of use for healthcare providers and patients alike.
