hey there. I have had more road rash than I can count. Highly recommend these guys (tegaderm) to speed your recovery.

CVS and most other places carries them

Depends on how likely they are to bleed on my clothes, honestly.

If they're super light scratches, forget it. No bandaids needed ever. If they're actively bleeding or cracking open and bleeding, I usually slap a Tegaderm on and leave it for a week. (Tegaderm is awesome, btw. Can't recommend it enough, as long as you don't mind the bandage being clear.)

you can cut it and overlay multiple sheets. I got mine off amazon. search Saniderm, Tegaderm or Tatuderm. it's all the same stuff. They come in different sizes.

Tegaderm bandages work wonders for me. You can put additional absorbent dressings under if needed.

It'll be a while before I can put together a comprehensive post but think of the basics as items that would get you to the nearest ambulance.

OK, this became a comprehensive post. :P

Here are pics of the stocked kit. (a few items OTC meds are missing and need to be restocked)

Disclosure: I have enough basic first-aid training to know my limitations; an RN friend of mine helped me build this kit.

Meds


  • Benadryl and an epipen(you'll need an Rx for this) for allergic reactions

  • OTC Imodium/Pepto pills (since dehydration from vomiting or diarrhea will kill you)

  • OTC Advil, Tylenol, Naproxen (not absolutely necessary but the first two can help bring a fever down and Naproxen can bring inflammation down...more comfort items, they don't take up a lot of space)
  • triple antibiotic ointment in single use disposable packs (it's basically Polysporin but you avoid contaminating a whole tube by using individual packs; I try to find similar packaging with other stuff)

  • BZK wipes (for disinfecting scrapes and such)

  • sterile saline (small bottle or disposable sterile bullets for flushing out wounds or as an eye wash)

  • non-enteric, standard 325mg Aspirin in individual foil packs (I've read that chewing these at the time of a heart attack and in the month after will improve survivability by as much as 23%)

  • if hypoglycemia or diabetes are factors, pack plenty of Dex4 sugar tablets and whatever other supplies you might need

    Misc.


  • 3M Steri-Strip closures to keep a deep cut from opening up further (forget surgical glue or stitches; you'll only seal dirt and bacteria into a wound)

  • couple of Tegaderm films would be good to cover wounds.

  • stretch gauze

  • sterile gauze

  • med tape

  • Advanced, flexible bandaids, large (forget fabric or regular crappy bandages; if you carry any at all, get these)

  • Advanced blister bandaids (similar to above material but different form-factor)

  • QuikClot sponge

  • triangle bandage with safety pins

  • pair of EMT shears (don't use a knife as you risk injury while cutting clothes or bandages)

  • Sliver Gripper tweezer with clip

  • pair of disposable nitrile gloves in a small sealed bag

  • water purification tabs (safe drinking water is critical; better this than having to use the Imodium!)

  • emergency blanket (statistics are dramatic on reduced survivability with even the slightest hypothermia)

    The point of this kit is to get someone to the nearest medical help. You can get a replacement pair of nitrile gloves, more gauze or whatever when you get to the ambulance or hospital. Some of the stuff is for keeping conditions from getting worse (sliver removal, band-aids, blister cushions, ointment) which might be viewed as "comfort" items not "first aid" but in more rough environments, an infected cut could kill you so I put it in.

Here you go: https://www.amazon.com/Tegaderm-Transparent-Dressing-Inch-Count/dp/B0009Q01AO

Just make sure you pick the size right. They do stick well to each other but you don’t want to make a mosaic out of them.
