Bunion care that uses hydrocolloid dressings to form a second skin, relieving pressure and cushioning sore areas, called Compeed Bunion Plasters. Those who suffer from rubbing footwear can expect reduced pain while wearing shoes and greater confidence on the move. Are multi-day wear and waterproof protection enough to change the way bunions are managed?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Wearing Comfort: Hydrocolloid dressing forms a second skin, cushioning the bunion and hugging skin with tapered edges for a low-profile fit
- • Best for: People with painful bunions who need pressure relief and discreet everyday protection
- • Not ideal for: Those who prefer non-adhesive padding or open-air dressings rather than sealed hydrocolloid coverage
Hydrocolloid plasters create a cushioned, wound-healing layer that redistributes pressure and softens the bunion. Strong adhesive and waterproof construction allow multi-day wear with discreet coverage.
Instant pain relief - thanks to hydrocolloid technology
Hydrocolloid dressings absorb moisture and form a gel-like secondary skin that redistributes pressure away from the sore area while supporting a moist healing environment.
Sharp rubbing and pressure reduce quickly, so walking and shoe wear feel noticeably less painful; the dressing also supports skin recovery over time.
Secure, multi-day wear - with strong adhesive and waterproof construction
A strong adhesive layer and a waterproof outer film keep the plaster attached even during showers and light activity, while tapered edges minimise snags and lifting.
Plasters stay in place for days, cutting down on replacements and allowing uninterrupted protection through daily routines.
Discreet protection on the move - with form-fitting, individually wrapped plasters
Form-fitting shapes conform to bunion contours and taper at the edges to sit comfortably under socks and shoes; individual wrapping keeps each plaster hygienic and pocket-sized.
Comfortable wear under footwear and easy, hygienic replacement when out and about, making the dressing practical for active people.
