I run about 25 miles per week and I ended up getting blisters on my toes for wearing the wrong socks. I tried these bandages and I have to say they do work. I tried other pads and cushions before and they don't work at all or the blisters get worse. With these bandages the pain goes right away and they stay on even after shower. Now, I have them in case I get more blisters. I need to try the ones specially designed for fingers and toes.

Great bandaid ... works great for blisters and more. Actually stays on all day. Cushions blister/wound & keeps it clean, dry and heals faster. Good stuff.

So last year I took a trip to Las Vegas with a friend of mine, and on one of the days we were there he had the bright idea to walk from one end of the strip to the other. In mid-day, summer Vegas heat. I'd only packed light shoes because I didn't want hot feet during the trip, and because of that, it took only a couple of blocks before both of my feet formed several massive heat blisters. SO, after a day of agony, we went to a store and I picked up a box of these, having heard about them before, and oh my god you guys.

You guys.

I just-- they're just amazing okay? You put them on and can walk normally like, instantly. I went from being all walking on the sides of my feet as awkwardly as possible to being able to walk like a real person. I mean yeah I'm sure my feet were still a teensy bit tender but the fact that I could walk on them at all was amazing. I was getting some wicked muscle soreness from walking weird, ok?

Anyway so the blisters were gone in maybe two days. It was fabulous and I was Saddest Laurie this past Sunday when I got another big blister from walking in crappy socks and it turned out I was out of them, I thought I still had one left over but evidently did use them all in Vegas. I had a lot of blisters back then, ok? It was terrible. Don't hate.

The Band-Aid blister cushions are truly incredible. I get blisters on my heals frequently. Generally from wearing new shoes too long the first time and not liking to wear socks. I keep moleskin in my golf bag for just this reason. I tried these after getting a blister from wearing new golf shoes the first time when walking 18 holes (yes, I should know better) without socks. They were terrific! They protected the blister and it didn't hurt when I wore my runnings shoes or when I wore golf shoes again in a couple of days. They really stayed on, even through a shower. I went out and bought a couple of boxes to keep in my golf bag for future blister occurrences. I wish I had found these years ago!

I got a huge, painful blister on my heel during a run. I didn't want to stop working out for days until it healed, so I tried bandaids, tape, etc. Nothing worked. Just putting on a (different) pair of sneakers was excruciating--I couldn't even walk, much less run or work out. I bought these blister cushions, put one over the blister, put on my sneakers and--entirely pain-free! Not even a twinge of pain or any type of discomfort. I would not have believed it was possible. I was able to run like I had no blister at all.

One thing I'd like to point out is that the package illustration makes it seem like these are HUGE, thick pads. I almost didn't buy them because I was wondering how they'd fit between my heel and my shoes. No worries--they are really quite flat and not much thicker than a regular bandaid. They also stay on for days, even after multiple showers.

I can't recommend them enough.

On two vacations this year involving lots of daily walking, I got blisters, even though I was wearing excellent walking shoes. These gel pads make the pain stop instantly, and they do stay on for a long time, even if you get them wet. I will never take another vacation without having blister pads on hand. I honestly prefer the Compeed brand (which saved my feet on a month-long Italy vacation where we walked 10-20 miles daily), but that brand is not available in the USA (only in Europe). After I ran out of my beloved Compeeds, I tried several US brands, and the Band Aid brand was by far the closest to the Compeed.

I recently cut my heel very, very badly, which made wearing shoes impossible. I tried these out and I instantly could walk around in my shoes in complete comfort! I was surprised that the band-aid did exactly what it promoted: stay put, multiple days, even after showering! I'm a very frugal shopper, and based on the high quality and performance, I've definitely deemed these worth the price. These bandages will be a standard in my first-aid kit from now on!

I had awful blisters after a few warts were frozen away...one was near a tendon on my heel and got so big, bigger than any blister I had seen before! After I drained it I was worried about infection and it started to hurt when exposed to water especially, but these bandaids stopped the pain right away! They protect undrained blisters well but provide like a skin graft for healing, drained blisters too.

I do wish that they came in a bigger size because one of these blisters was really quite big...on the worst one it didn't really cover the whole blister but still provided so much relief it is worth it.

bought this box for my mom, and ended up with some of these for me too!
they are perfect healers for blisters and for those bruises where you don't want to irritate skin changing the bandage everyday, giving time for it to heal protected and medicated.

I had a knee replaced 4 months ago, and that leg swells a lot when I sit all day at my computer, and that then makes shoes tight creating blisters. This really does heal existing blisters. I've found, though, that I need to cover it with band-aid stretchable variety because the edges seem to peel up and bunch which is a different aggravation. Once it's protected and stays put, though, it's a great product. Since the other knee replacement is already scheduled, I bought these on subscribe-and-save which is a good value because these are $4.99 a box everywhere else.
