I thought up a new type of band-aid! You know how its always a struggle that you
have to wash your injuries before you put on the band-aid? Well, while this is a
pain, it's still very important, because this prevents the injury from getting
infected. Well, a lot of people skip this step, so I invented a band-aid that
does it for you!
There are three parts to the band-aid:
First, there is the normal sticky strip, that might have to be a tiny bit
stickier, only because its carrying more than just a pad, like usual.
Then, there would be the second part, which is the innermost part. It would be
a small crevice that would be made of a plastic wrap type material that would be
comfortable for a band-aid and would be able to hold the contents inside. The
contents would be an antibiotic type liquid that would be the equivalent to
washing the wound. The plastic wrap material would also stop the liquid from
getting absorbed in the pad.
Finally, there would be a pad. This would be the part closest to your skin. It
would be a normal pad, but with small holes in it, barely noticeable, that are
lined with the same plastic wrap material as in the container of the antibiotic
liquid.
How it works:
First, you'd unwrap the band-aid. Then there will be two other wrapper
parts. Pull them off while
pushing the band-aid against your skin. This will release the liquid, and it
will go through the tiny wholes, and into your skin. The antibiotic will fight off the
bacteria already in there and prevent more from coming in.
The liquid will
be gone in a few seconds, and then you'll be left with the pad to soak up and
blood or pus coming from the injury-like a normal band-aid.
Conclusion:
It might be too much effort for just a small feature, but washing your wound
after getting injured is very important to your health. A lot of people don't
know that.
Hope you liked my invention! Now I know how hard it is to explain stuff to
people in just words!
Cya!
