Pharmacist Advice
Select Large size according to the circumference of the body area, rather than choosing the size based only on age or body weight. The bandage should provide firm support but must not be excessively tight.
For knee or thigh use, ensure the bandage lies smoothly without folds or excessive pressure. Check skin colour, sensation and circulation during prolonged use.
Do not apply directly over an open wound unless used over a suitable 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.
