A member asked:

The drape for the wound vac is causing redness, irritation and pain, is there anything else i could use for cover? i have a wound vac to lower abdomen

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hypoallergenic: tape, adhesive, cloth or gauze . I suggest sterile Telfa, covered by 1-2 layers of sterile gauze, held in place by hypoallergenic tape= sterile pressure dressing. Consult your surgeon.
