The gel is normal

As DuoDERM absorbs fluid it forms a yellowish gel that can look and smell like pus. That is the dressing working, not usually infection. Change it when the gel reaches about 2cm from the edge.

FAQs

How long can DuoDERM stay on?

Often up to 7 days, depending on fluid levels and the care plan.

When should I not use DuoDERM?

Avoid it on infected wounds, heavily exuding wounds, deep cavities without a filler, and very fragile skin.

Is DuoDERM waterproof?

Yes. The outer layer is waterproof, so patients can shower with it on.
