Abstract
A bandage is described comprising a rubber-based adhesive and a flexible substrate that is particularly adapted for application onto warts located on the ends of human digits. The flexible substrate is waterproof, skin-colored and shaped in various ways so as to securely attach onto the ends of human fingers and toes. The shape of the bandage promotes long-term use of the bandage to induce the body's inflammatory response and to prevent transmission of the wart virus to other persons.
Claims6
An adhesive bandage for treating warts on the ends of human digits, comprising:
- a flesh-colored multi-sectioned polyethylene first layer;
- a cloth-based multi-sectioned second layer, wherein the first layer is permanently bonded to the second layer;
- and
- a polyisoprene-based multi-sectioned adhesive third layer disposed onto the first layer and the second layer,
- wherein a total thickness of the three layers ranges approximately between 0.23 mm and 0.33 mm, the layers substantially shaped as a cross with four substantially orthogonal sections extending radially from a center of the bandage, and three of the sections being substantially rectangular and the fourth section being substantially semi-circular.
