A nose wiping device comprises a knobbed base structure, a cover enclosing the knobbed base structure, and connecting member attached to a first end of the cover and a second end of the cover. The nose wiping device is configured to be worn around a limb thereby allowing removal of nasal drip.

The present invention discloses a hair growth stimulating dressing having advantages of simple manufacturing processes, low manufacture cost and reasonable selling price. To fabricate the hair growth stimulating dressing, it is firstly took mesoporous silica nanoparticles doped with lanthanide elements and at least one polymer matrix as raw materials to fabricate a plurality of biological fibers; and subsequently, the biological fibers are weaved to a biological textile. Particularly, the hair growth stimulating dressing can indeed show a promotion effect of hair growth on the heads of BALB/c nude mice after being covered onto the head of the nude mice. Therefore, compared to the fact that the commercial hair growth promoting products only just can show apparent hair growing effect on user's head after being continuously used for at least 4 months, this hair growth stimulating dressing only takes 7 days to exhibit positive hair growing effect on user's head.

A protective device configured in accordance with a particular embodiment includes a cover including a first region that extends over a vulnerable site on a patient and a second region that extends over an area on the patient peripheral to the vulnerable site. The first region of the cover is at least generally impermeable to liquid water. The device further includes an adhesive film and a liquid-absorbing element. The adhesive film is configured to form an adhesive bond between the second region of the cover and the patient. The bond has an inner edge portion positioned toward the vulnerable site and an outer edge portion positioned away from the vulnerable site. The liquid-absorbing element is configured to absorb liquid contamination at the outer edge portion of the bond and/or liquid contamination approaching the outer edge portion of the bond when the cover is operably positioned on the patient.
