Hydrocolloid Bandages

Even using a nice pair of leather gloves, I wore off a few layers of skin on the palm of my right hand, and it hurt just to touch it.  I knew a regular Band-Aid would not stay on, so I went to AI to find a solution.  I had never heard of the hydrocolloid bandages, but from its description, I thought I'd try it.  I found the bandages you see below at our local Meijer, a box of six for less than $3.  You can see the bandage on my hand, and it stayed put for a couple of days, and I only replaced it because nine holes of golf wore the edges down.  I was amazed that I could grip and swing a golf club, which would have been too painful without this bandage.  You can read more about them at the link below.
