How should you use this compression bandage?
Start by thoroughly cleaning the area to be treated. Then apply the foam directly to the skin, ensuring the band is snug but not too tight. The beveled cut makes it easier to adjust and allows the wraps to overlap without creating bulk. This application must be performed methodically to ensure even compression. Once the foam is in place, it can be secured with a compression bandage or a regular bandage, depending on therapeutic needs.
To improve hygiene, this foam pad is machine-washable at 120°C.
