A disposable sterile emollient carrier device for delivering an application of an emollient is described. The carrier device is to be used for treatment of simple and/or complex cutaneous injuries and disorders on different parts of the human body. The disposable emollient carrier device includes an elongated bidirectional (stretches longitudinally) wrap having a bonded or movable emollient carrier platform thereon. The carrier platform may be either a medical grade foam sheeting surface or a porous mesh pocket. The foam sheeting surface allows the emollient to be applied directly to it, and then the combination applied to an intended area to be treated. Similarly, the mesh pocket receives the emollient therein and the emollient is dispensed through a porous front surface of the pocket to the wound. Both the foam sheeting surface and the mesh pocket include an impermeable back surface to prevent the emollient from bleeding onto the wrap. The wrap may vary in size and shape to accommodate various anatomic locations. The bidirectional wrap is adaptable for conforming to various parts of the anatomy of a patient and includes a releasable hook fastener at one end for securing the end to any portion of the wrap along its length. The wrap is made of a loose weave stretch bonded laminate material. Also, the wrap may use pressure sensitive tape mounted at the ends of the wrap for securing the carrier device to or around the body.
