PolyMem WIC is made for holes in the body. It grows to fill the space inside the hole, keeping it clean and wet while soaking up extra liquid. It's the main dressing for these kinds of wounds and doesn't have a thin film on the back so it can soak up from all sides. Other PolyMem dressings, like PolyMem Adhesive, can be used on top of it.

What to buy with Polymem Wic Silver

 

How Do Polymem Cavity Filler Work?

  • Silver Power: They have tiny silver particles that fight germs. When the bandage touches the wound's liquid, it releases the silver.
  • Bye-Bye Bacteria: This silver action kills almost all the bacteria in the wound.
  • Spread the Defense: It makes sure the silver covers a big area, so it fights germs all around and reduces how many germs are in the wound.
  • Gooey Goodness: The bandage turns into a gel, which is like a thick liquid. It can soak up a lot, up to 10 times its weight in liquid.
  • Clean and Clear: Along with PolyMem's other tricks, it helps clean the wound and get rid of yucky stuff. This happens without causing too much pain when changing the bandage.
