Hydrocolloid patches work slightly differently than a standard dressing. First of all, they accumulate exudate from the wound and maintain an optimal healing and regeneration environment for damaged skin. These are not irritating materials. Unless you have used disinfectants that could damage the skin, the colloid dressing itself should have a soothing effect. The bladder and corn are two different skin lesions. The imprint is thickened skin reaching quite deep (the so-called root), while the bladder is the result of abrasion and pressure on the skin of the foot (often filled with liquid content). It is necessary to determine the ailment quite precisely, since the treatment procedure is completely different. Swelling resulting from injury or inflammation can be relieved by cooling, the use of preparations with local anti-edematous effect (eg Altacet gel) and rest with raised legs (eg on a bed with a pillow under the foot). If the situation does not improve, I suggest you seek help from a doctor. On our website you can check the prices and availability of the drug and place an order with collection at the pharmacy or home delivery - for most over-the-counter preparations: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/3917/altacet-zel/apteki I encourage you to read: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/produkty-compeed https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/preparaty-na-odciski
