Collection: Wound, Burn & Skin Injury Care

First steps matter

• Cleansing: Rinse under lukewarm running water for 30–60 seconds. Avoid excessive use of harsh disinfectants.
• Stop bleeding: Apply steady pressure with sterile gauze for 5–10 minutes.
• Protect: Use a moist dressing to maintain hydration balance, changing it every 24–48 hours.

What to keep in your kit

• Bandages & Bandaging Supplies — Adhesive strips, sterile gauze pads, and elastic wraps in various sizes.
• Liquid Bandages — Waterproof protection for small cuts and superficial wounds.
• Burn Care & Burn Care Products — Cooling gels and dressings to slow progression of mild burns.
• Scars & Wounds — Silicone gel sheets to reduce discoloration and raised scar formation.
• Elastic Bandages — Useful for swelling control and securing dressings.
• Gauze — The essential for cleansing, absorbing, and protecting wounds.

When to seek care

See a healthcare provider immediately for deep lacerations, signs of infection (heat, pus, expanding redness), chemical or electrical burns, burns on the face, hands, or genitals, or second-degree burns covering large areas.

Habity routine

• Before and after wound care: 30-second hand hygiene → cleanse → stop bleeding → apply moist dressing → reassess after 24 hours.
• For minor burns: Cool under running water for 10–20 minutes → dry and protect → loosely secure with gauze.
• Everyday prevention: Keep sharp knives, hot cookware, and steam sources in organized zones; restrict access for children and pets.

Simple beats complicated

Wound healing is about “less handling, consistent monitoring.” Habity promotes standardized routines over excessive interventions to keep everyday safety simple.
