Hi all,

I’ve been on peritoneal dialysis for the second time in my life since November.

This last couple of weeks I’ve been really struggling with the area around my exit side (not immediately around the hole but the patch of skin around it.)

I currently use mepore dressings but (I THINK with the weather getting warmer) it’s become so itchy and I’ve started getting cuts on my skin when taking it off where the dressing was. The area underneath it is all patchy and blotchy and the whole thing is super uncomfortable.

Does anyone have any recommendations they’ve used or alternatives to Mepore dressings? (I’m in the UK if that changes anything!)

Thank you!
