Pharmacist Advice
Select XL size according to the circumference of the body area and the manufacturer's sizing guide. The bandage should provide comfortable support without being excessively tight.
Make sure the bandage is applied smoothly without folds or concentrated pressure points. Check skin colour, sensation and circulation during prolonged use.
Do not apply directly over an open wound unless used over an appropriate wound dressing.
If swelling is severe, unexplained or persistent, or if there is significant pain or suspected fracture, consult a healthcare professional before using compression.
