The Bandage - Adhesive is a small sticky plaster for covering minor wounds. It stems an open wound much like a cloth Bandage, but on a smaller scale.
It suits quick care for scratches and small cuts early in the game. It is very light and small enough to keep in a wallet. Its main cost is that it lasts a far shorter time on a wound than a cloth Bandage. It is also used up when it comes off.
Adhesive bandages are found as loot in almost every medicine cabinet. A Box of Adhesive Bandages opens into twenty four of them. The Doctor is the best occupation for bandages. It starts with the most First Aid skill. The Nurse and the Park Ranger also start with some First Aid skill.
How to Use Bandage - Adhesive
The adhesive bandage sits under the Bandage option on the health panel. A right click on a wounded body part shows it. It covers wounds, and it goes on after the wound has been disinfected.
A cloth Bandage keeps a wound covered far longer, and a Bandage (Sterilized) adds a guard against infection. The adhesive bandage is best kept for small scratches. A deep wound or a burn calls for a cloth Bandage.
Twenty four of them pack into a Box of Adhesive Bandages with the Pack Items in Box recipe. The Unpack Box of 24 Adhesive Bandages recipe opens the box again.
Upkeep
An adhesive bandage is used up when it comes off a wound. Each one serves a single wound for a short while. A good stock is worth carrying, since a wound may need more than one.
