Swiftband Double Closure Elastic Bandages - 4" x 5 yds.

Swiftband Elastic Bandages

Apply compression on healing injuries using these high-quality bandages. The elastic bandage is easy to wrap and secure without using clips or pins. Just use the double closure hook and loop on the ends on each bandage. How to apply a compression bandage depends on the area you are wrapping, but here are a couple of tips. The bandage should be wrapped snugly for compression, but not too tight, you still want blood flow to the rest of the extremity. Also, while elastic bandages are great for compression, you shouldn’t use them to prevent re-injury. Try an ankle brace instead. This elastic bandage is made of polyester, cotton, spandex, and elastomer. You can hand wash it at 86°F and reuse.
