I have a skin disease and need to use a dressing under my arms, daily. Is this acceptable to use in that area, even with the sweat?

You should be seen by a doctor consult a nurse regarding the use of DuoDerm.

I have white patch which crack on my face skin. I tried to massage with Bio Oil. White stuffs came out...DuoDERM Extra Thin CGF Dressing... helped loosen dead skin and cosmetic cover when I went out. I have been used this for years. Yes,

I always wear it on my bare skin. If I use it at work, then I try to sneak away during lunch and remove the brace for a few minutes. It does get a little sweaty and uncomfortable, but for the most part it's great. It provides me with the support I need and improves my posture. I haven't tried washing it, my only concern would be rusting the metal springs.

I put this on first, and then add moisturizer if I need it. It is pretty moisturizing on its own, but you may need more depending on your skin type, and seasonal factors. I don't see why you couldn't use your serums under it. Also, don't use it on your face every day, as the application area should be rotated for absorption reasons I am not going to go into. :-)

You could do that if you really had to but I wouldn't buy it for that. Because it has little rubber knobs on one side and that would not feel good rubbing on your skin when you dry yourself off.

yes, you can use it. dry heat takes for a while till heat come up. I don't recommend to use it for longtime likeover night for back. it could cause rash b/coz of no ventilation.

Yes. After a couple hours it might start become a little uncomfortable and sweaty, but can be worn all day. I myself use it most of the day.

I have only used it on upper arms, above breast & on my back. It has stayed on for a week over med patch until I change it. At times I have been very sweaty & it has not come off.

Not sure. If there is a sweat stain I rub a fels naptha bar on the armpit to treat.

You could wear it under a baggy sweater. Wouldn't recommend it against your bare skin. You would definitely chafe everywhere. It fits snug to your body, but still the weights are about an inch and a half thick. Take into account that the canvas is thick, and then there's Velcro flaps and straps. You are adding a few inches to your torso. Even under a baggy sweater, you would look awkward

It is not working for the purpose I am using it for. I have read that you can use only one formotion sickness. It will rub your arm a little sore so protect it with bandage or clothing.

I would say that if you take it off for a little while around every 20 minutes of use and let your arms cool down, it should not be a problem. With that said, it is probably more dependent on whether or not you are using it in an air conditioned area, or the temperature in the location you are in. I personally have not found heat to be of any real issue while wearing them.

If you do not sweat then I would not purchase this item. Otherwise you would have to experiment with the settings and time to find out what works best for you. However these blankets are not returnable when used.

A person who is using the product can wear clothes within minutes. There is not so much applied that you have to wait. Your skin will begin to absorb it. It would not be much different than when you apply lotion to your skin.

It can be worn under sweatshirts and long sleeves. I wear it to crossfit every day when i work out and it keeps pressure from my tendon.

No, no problem with sweat at all. I did rub off a little on my ankle when I wore my Converse all day but covered it right up with a dab of lotion. Best stuff I've ever used but use gloves.

You could test it on some fabric of the same type, try rinsing just the underarm area with baking soda and water.

I don't think I'd recommend that. Wearing it for 6+ hours would probably leave you rather sore, especially if you're not used to it. I usually wear mine for only 2-3 hours a day.
