Patches and holidays
« on: January 25, 2024, 03:12:34 PM »

Hi all,

For anyone using patches what do you do when on holiday? How are they with swimming etc?

I have girlie spa weekend next month and plan on using the pool and then a holiday in March where I’d like to be able to swim too. I know patches stay ok in the shower but what soaking for a period of time?

Would be good to hear your experiences so I know if I should take extra encase.

Thanks

Jenny

I don't know if they would stay on if soaked, so unless anyone can confirm, but what about wrapping it over with a cohesive bandage? My daughter used this on her knee and went in the pool and sea with no problems.

Or could you place it on your bum cheek and put some tape over it, and then your bikini bottoms/swimsuit would help it stay in place.
