Leukotape

[lmeyer]

I went to buy some leukotape and saw there are 2 kinds - p and k. Which one is used for blister prevention and hot spots?

p is sports tape....hand tearable and for wraps.

k-Leukotape K promotes the body's own healing process while allowing complete freedom of movement. With reliable adhesion, try this elastic kinesiology tape!

Leukotape P is what I use to prevent blisters, sticks much much better than any of the kinesiology tapes I've tried, though I've never tried Leukotape K.

Buy the "P" version.

Agreed…..the “P” is what you want. Wear it starting on day 1. It’s meant to be “preventative”. Don’t wait for the hot spots to develop before using.

Apply the Leukotape -P directly to your feet, ankles etc? Then put your sock of choice on?

Yes. I have applied once and removed 14 days later. It simply doesn’t fall off. Yea, there is some adhesive build up that takes a little elbow grease to remove after being applied for so long but it sure does beat blisters.
