Unna Boot
The McKesson cotton Unna boot contains a coating of zinc oxide and calamine to soothe skin and address topical issues. It's well suited for managing extremities with developments such as venous ulcers that require protection and support. The gauze bandage roll contains a non-hardening paste of zinc oxide that allows the bandage to stay moist, and calamine to help alleviate itching. A durable and non-raveling thread-locked gauze construction helps avoid the problem of loose threads entering wounds. Each zinc oxide wrap comes packaged in a vacuum-sealed pouch to maintain moisture prior to use. It contains no preservatives.
At a Glance:
- Contains zinc oxide and calamine to soothe and relieve skin issues
- Provides venous ulcer compression therapy in actively ambulatory users
- Non-raveling, thread-locked gauze to discourage loose threads and keep intact
- Available in 4 inch x 10 yards and 3 inch x 10 yard rolls
Skin-Soothing Unna Boot
Direct Skin Application
Unlike traditional cotton gauze bandage wraps, the Unna boot bandage is evenly saturated with a non-hardening mixture of zinc oxide to help provide venous ulcer compression therapy in active ambulatory wearers. The flexible bandage is also effective in drying the oozing of poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. It contains calamine to help minimize itching and soothe inflamed skin. The gauze bandage wrap is made from non-raveling, thread-locked gauze to help deflect loose threads.
Easy to Apply
The cotton Unna Boot with zinc oxide and calamine is packaged in an easily opened vacuum-sealed pouch to keep the bandage moist prior to use. After application, the zinc oxide wrap continues to stay moist to encourage healing without the use of preservatives. The cotton bandage is non-sterile and intended for single use. It can stay in place for several days when covered and protected by a secondary dressing.
Improve Blood Flow
Help boost circulation with the compression provided by the Unna boot. Improved blood flow helps to promote healing so skin returns to a healthy state sooner. The soft cotton material wraps evenly and consistently to deliver uniform compression where applied. It's suitable for use on feet and legs as well as other limbs and extremities.

This product was ordered by a doctor and has worked well. Our only issue is the width. Even though we order the 4” and that’s the picture that appears on our order, we have gotten the 3” twice. Still a good product, just takes more rolls to cover the area.

This product is so comforting and relieving when using as the first layer of dressing to a wound that does not want to heal. It was welcome relief to what felt like was my entire leg on fire...best of all, it has been the ONLY thing I can find rhay does NOT stick to my wound.

I spent a small fortune on the junk at walmart and the like so i finally went to Woundcare specialist and after spending a larger small fortune i finally figured out this was part of their dressing that was actually healing my persistent wound. Would buy again but i expect to be healed after this box.

If comfort, gentle compression and protection are helpful, then this is the way to go. Application the "old- fashioned way" for stasis ulcers required tight wrapping with an outer dressing to hold firm for a week at a time. If that is your need, then you've got a potentially correctable vein problem and should see a doctor. For all others, this is the way to go. Antiseptic, analgesic, moisture holding (for a day or two at best), easily wrapped, minimal mess compared to other brands, just as perfect as it can be. Best suited for wounds of leg or forearm. Pink calamine will stain clothing so cover with a compression garment.

I take care of my 88-year-old father who, among other things, suffers from edema in both legs, leg ulcers, weeping rashes, layers of dead skin like potato chips, etc. I spent eight months fighting a losing battle trying to keep the ailments at bay with a variety of different prescription creams and ointments. Dad's GP finally recommended we try an unna boot. He was going to have me bring dad into the office in so he could apply it there, but once I did a little research, I realized I could do this myself.I wrapped dad's feet and ankles after his Sunday shower, and kept them that way for a week. Come the next weekend I cut the bandages off and "wow!" Dad's wounds healed more in one week, than they had in the last six months. I repeated the process two more weeks, after which his skin looked 150% better. Due to dads age and circulatory issues, the problems with his legs are a chronic condition. He's never going to heal permanently. However, I've found I can keep his skin conditions to a modest level, by using the wrap for a couple weeks, in between every five or six weeks or so without.BEFORE YOU APPLY!The first YouTube video I found teaching how to apply this bandage was wrong. It was at a medical clinic no less, where the guy wrapped it like you would a typical ace bandage. I used the same technique and by mid-week Dads toes looked like balloons. I did some more YouTube research and finally found the proper way to wrap the bandage. When wrapping, you have to allow for swelling, especially at the feet and legs, particularly for seniors. The bandage material of this product has no elasticity. To compensate, you need to use an overlapping wrap technique where the wrap keeps doubling back, back and forth, along the top of the foot and leg. Look on YouTube. You'll know you have the right technique when you see it.You'll need to put something over the bandage since its impregnated with medication that will get all over everything if you don't. You can use a compression sock if you'd like. In my case, I use an Ace bandage. I wrap the Ace with modest tension so if swell occurs, it has enough give.If you or yours are dealing with chronic edema, skin ulcers, rashes, shedding dead skin like a snake, etc, and you've been fighting a losing battle so far, give this wrap a try. Based on my own experience, I highly recommend it.
