ABSTRACT:
An adhesive bandage used personally to cover a minor injury on a human body, especially on a finger or a toe thereof, comprises a bandage proper having an adhesive inside, a pad fixed to a substantially central portion of the inside of the bandage proper, and a protective paper having opposed end portions removably attached to the inside of the bandage proper. The protective paper has a central, greater part folded flatwise. The central greater part of the protective paper can be unfolded and has a sufficient length to provide, together with the bandage proper, an ample space through which a finger or a toe with a minor injury to be covered can be inserted, when the central greater part is unfolded. Another adhesive bandage for personal use comprises a bandage proper having an adhesive side, a pad fixed to a substantially central portion of the adhesive side of the bandage proper for directly covering a minor injury, a loop means having opposed end portions removably attached to opposed end portions of the adhesive side of the bandage proper, and a protective paper having a substantially central, greater part removably attached to the adhesive side of the bandage proper. The loop means has a sufficient length to form, together with the bandage proper, a loop which defines an expandable space through which fingers can be inserted.
