Tubular Bandage

Tubular bandage can be helpful in managing an injured, painful joint, by providing:

  1. Compression, controlling the build up of fluid around the joint;
  2. Gentle support, limiting excessive movement that could worsen the pain or injury;
  3. Pain relief, by reducing pressure on the affected area;
  4. And, heat retention, which can relax muscles and joints, improving flexibility and reducing stiffness.
  5. Tubular bandage is easy to apply and can be layered up to provide higher or lower levels of support as required.
  6. Tubular bandage is easily cut with a standard pair of first aid scissors;
  7. And is ideal for holding a hot/cold pack in place on an injured joint.

To get the maximum benefit from a tubular bandage, it must fit snugly, but not too tight, to avoid cutting off circulation. If the pain persists or worsens, it is always a good idea to consult a healthcare professional who can assess the severity of an injury.
