A wound dressing for application to a protruding part of a joint of the body, in particular the heel. The dressing includes an elongated first part for placing on one side of the protruding joint part, and a second part for placing on another side of the joint, and two ear parts extending laterally from the second part. At least the central parts of the first part, the second part and the ear parts of the dressing are covered with an absorbent element. A portion of each laterally extending ear part between its outermost lateral point and a longitudinal tip of the second part is concave to facilitate wrapping of the ear parts around the heel without overlapping of the absorbent element.
