I thought this would help with toe blisters, I am a dancer. The gel pads were terrible and these are paper thin adhesive circles that do not cover the gel pads. It did not work for me.

There is no absorbent material like gauze on these so you really can’t use them over any sort of open wound. You could use them over a small cut or scrape, but put ointment on that area first to keep the adhesive from sticking to it. Handy for broken fingernails. I don’t believe that these breath either because of the full coverage of the adhesive. I put it in the medicine cabinet and will revisit my review later should my mind change.
