What Should We Pay Attention To When Using Elastic Bandages?

The following precautions should be taken when using elastic bandages:

①Appropriately tight

②The winding should be flat and there should be no wrinkles;

③ Add a thin and soft pad under the outer bandage;

④ The vein should be emptied before bandaging, so it is better to bandage before getting up in the morning.

⑤ Bandaging should start from the distal end of the limb and gradually wrap around to the proximal end.

⑥ After bandaging, attention should be paid to observe the skin color of the extremity and the swelling of the affected limb to judge the effect.

⑦ Do not use it as much as possible when there are skin lesions such as ulcers, boils, and dermatitis.

⑧ When cleaning, you should pay attention to avoid using hot water to clean, do not use detergents, just clean water.
