What is petrolatum?
Petrolatum, also known as petroleum jelly, is a semi-solid, oily substance derived from refined petroleum. It acts as a moisture barrier, helping to protect the skin and promote healing by sealing in hydration. In medical dressings, like paraffin gauze, petrolatum prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound, reducing pain and tissue damage during removal.
