Before the invention of the Band-Aid in 1920, various methods were used to dress wounds. These included adhesive strips, gauze, and adhesive tape applied directly to the wound. However, these methods were often less convenient and effective than the Band-Aid, which revolutionized wound care with its easily applied adhesive bandage.

Should you put a band-Aid on a blister?

Yes, you should put a band-aid on a blister to protect it from further friction and infection. The band-aid can help keep the blister clean and provide cushioning. However, ensure the blister is clean and dry before applying the band-aid, and consider using a blister-specific bandage for added protection. If the blister is large or painful, it may be advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
