Why choose this product?

Shaped to fit your heel, URGO heel blisters is the URGO reference plaster for treating your heel blisters.

  • Isolates the blister from pressure and friction for immediate pain relief with its thickened core pad
  • Promotes blister healing thanks to the hydrocolloid matrix of the dressing, which forms a skin-reconstituting gel on contact with the blister

How should you use this product?

1. Do not puncture the blister. If it has already burst, clean it and  the surrounding area with soap and water and disinfect with an alcohol-free antiseptic solution.
2. Remove the transparent tab (indicated by the arrow) and warm the plaster in the palms of your hands before removing the decorative backing paper.
3. Apply to clean, dry skin by positioning the central part of the plaster directly over the blister.
4. Smooth the edges carefully to optimize adhesion.
5. Do not leave the plaster in place for more than 2-3 days; remove  it if it has not detached on its own. Replace following the instructions for use.

How do the blisters appear?

A blister is a very fine bubble filled with a clear fluid trapped under the skin. It is most often located on the feet or hands. After repeated rubbing of the skin (shoes, tools, etc.), it develops and becomes very painful.

– if the blister worsens or shows no improvement within 6 days of treatment,
– if there are signs of infection (redness, pain, heat, swelling around the
