Description: First Step Cohesive Bandage is a self-adhesive, stretchy bandage designed to provide support and protection for injuries, sprains, or strains. This versatile bandage sticks to itself without the need for clips or pins, ensuring secure placement while being gentle on the skin. It can be used for securing dressings, providing compression, or for wrapping areas that need stabilization. The 7.5 cm width makes it ideal for wrapping smaller to medium-sized areas such as ankles, wrists, or joints. It’s breathable, comfortable, and designed to stay in place even during physical activity.
Ingredients:
- Typically made from non-woven fabric with latex-free materials and a cohesive adhesive that sticks only to itself.
Usage Instructions:
- Begin by placing the bandage at the desired area, ensuring that the starting edge is positioned securely.
- Wrap the bandage around the area, overlapping each layer by about half of the width.
- Continue wrapping until the entire affected area is covered, making sure the bandage is snug but not too tight to restrict blood flow.
