I had a pain stimulator put in and my doctor used mastisol to hold the steristrips in place, my back has a perfect square where the ointment was and I guess it burnt my skin and I'm now going to have a scar for the rest of my life. I then developed a rash all over my body. He has just put me on a steroid pack today so I'm hoping to feel better soon.

Deep wound on the palm of my hand which is a difficult place to get steri strips to stick to. When I used this last night before sleep, it enabled thewound to dry out which is what it needed! It also held the steristrips in place & they still are at work today!! Great stuff!!
