Frequently asked questions
Can I use Surgical Basics Tubular Gauze Finger Protection 4 Pack directly on an open wound?
First-aid tapes, fixation bandages, and outer dressings are typically intended to hold a sterile wound dressing or pad in place rather than to contact the wound directly. Apply a sterile, non-adherent wound dressing or pad over the wound first, then secure with the outer bandage or tape. Always check the Surgical product instructions for the intended application.
Is Surgical Basics Tubular Gauze Finger Protection 4 Pack latex-free?
Latex content varies by product. Many modern wound-care products are latex-free to reduce risk of allergic reaction. If you have a known latex allergy, check the Surgical packaging or speak with your pharmacist before first use.
When should I seek medical advice for a wound?
Seek medical advice if a wound shows signs of infection (increasing pain, swelling, redness extending beyond the wound, pus, fever), if it is deep, dirty, or contains foreign material, if it is on the face or over a joint, if the person has not had a tetanus booster in the last 10 years, or if it is not healing as expected after a few days. HealthDirect Australia (1800 022 222) can provide nurse-led triage advice.
Can Surgical Basics Tubular Gauze Finger Protection 4 Pack be used when wet — for example in the shower?
Waterproof claims vary by product. Standard fabric or paper tapes are not waterproof and should be replaced if they get wet. Specific waterproof or water-resistant products (often labelled "Aqua" or with an IP rating) are designed for shower/swim use. Check the Surgical packaging or ask your pharmacist.
How should I store Surgical Basics Tubular Gauze Finger Protection 4 Pack?
Store wound-care products below 25°C in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep in the original packaging until use and do not use products that appear damaged, contaminated, or beyond their printed expiry date.
