How to use Self Adherent Cohesive Bandage Wrap?

• Before applying the bandage, clean the wound and the surrounding skin with a mild soap and water or an antiseptic solution.
• Ensure that the area is completely dry before applying the bandage. Moisture can cause the bandage to lose its adhesive properties.
• Select the appropriate size of the bandage that will fit snugly around the wound.
• Begin wrapping the bandage around the affected area, making sure to apply gentle pressure. The bandage should be stretched slightly as it is applied to ensure a snug fit.
• Overlap each layer of the bandage by about half of its width to ensure proper coverage.
• Once the wound is covered, secure the end of the bandage by pressing it firmly against itself.
• Ensure that the bandage is not too tight, as this can restrict blood flow to the affected area. If the bandage feels too tight, remove it and reapply with less tension.
• Check the wound regularly and change the bandage if it becomes wet or dirty.
