A bandage system lances a skin tag from a person's body and thereafter projects the wound created. The system has a base layer that is adhesively attached to the person such that the skin tag passes through an opening of the base layer. A cutter is located atop the base layer and uses a pair of blades that are squeezed together to cut the skin tag protruding through the opening. After cutting, a protective layer is adhered to the base layer such that a medicine laden absorbent pad on the protective layer overlays the opening on the base layer absorbing any blood from the wound and applying the medicine to the wound. Thereafter, the system is worn as a typical bandage.

An absorbent article which can have longitudinal direction folded side regions. The longitudinal direction folded side regions of the absorbent article can provide the absorbent article with a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration, the lateral direction width of each of the front waist edge and the back waist edge can be the same. In the second configuration, the lateral direction width of the front waist edge can be smaller than the lateral direction width of the back waist edge.

An absorbent article (10) can have a first body panel (20), a second body panel (30), and an absorbent panel (40) spanning between connecting the first body panel (20) and the second body panel (30). The absorbent panel (40) is narrower in width than each of the first body panel (20) and the second body panel (30) and is bonded to at least one of the first body panel (20) and/or second body panel (30) with at least one bond region (102,104) having a first bond strength and at least two bond regions (106,108) having a second bond strength greater than the first bond strength. Following use of the absorbent article (10) by a wearer, the portion of the absorbent panel (40) bonded to the body panel (20,30) with weaker bond strength can be separated from the body panel (20,30). The absorbent article (10) can be reconfigured from a wear configuration into a disposal configuration such that the portion of the material forming the body panel (20,30) which has been separated from the absorbent panel (40) can be inverted over the absorbent article (10).

An absorbent core is disclosed. The core includes a first absorbent core construction having multiple spaced-apart sections of a fibrous construction having a fiber structure. A first nonwoven sheet is positioned above the fibrous construction. A second nonwoven sheet is positioned below the fibrous construction. The first nonwoven sheet is coupled with the second nonwoven sheet at locations between adjacent sections of the multiple spaced-apart sections of the fibrous construction. Absorbent material is disposed within the fiber structure, between the first and second nonwoven sheets.
