Troubleshooting

Bandage feels too tight or restricts circulation

Remove the bandage and recut it to a shorter length. Ensure it is applied smoothly and not bunched up.

Bandage slips down or does not stay in place

Ensure the limb is clean and dry before application. Try cutting a slightly shorter piece or applying a second layer for added grip.

Skin irritation or discomfort

Remove the bandage immediately. Check for any rough edges from cutting. Ensure the bandage is not too tight. Consult a healthcare professional if irritation persists.

Bandage loses elasticity after washing

Follow care instructions carefully: use mild soap, cool water, and air dry. Avoid harsh detergents, hot water, and machine drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure and Cut: Determine the required length for the injured area. Use sharp scissors to cut the tubular bandage to the desired size. Ensure the cut is clean to prevent fraying.
  2. Application: Gently slide the cut section of the bandage over the injured limb. Ensure it fits snugly, providing adequate compression without restricting circulation.

Compatibility:
