We really do love these elastic tubular bandage. My husband has to wear them at night all the time. So will be ordering again when this order runs out.I use these for compression to combat edema. They work well and I like that you can customize the size when it comes on a roll like this. This product has become hard to find locally and I was glad to see it reasonably priced on Amazon.Due to medical problems which cause my legs to swell very badly, I must use some type of compression stockings. As they are difficult to put on, I have tried the tubigrip bandages. With the large roll, I can cut the appropriate size. They are much easier to put on and adhere to my leg w/o binding, and maintain the amount of pressure that I need. They wash well (line dry only), so I am able to reuse multiple times. Much more cost effective than stockings. I will continue to use.The idea is exceedingly simple -it's a stretchy cotton tube. But there are so many uses for it. Many problems with joints, muscles and tendons heal much better if they're just kept warm.
Cut off enough to cover the area and slide your hand, arm or leg into the tube. For large areas, it's better to have two layers. Make sure you buy a size big enough so that it doesn't cut off circulation.
Highly recommended for arthritis sufferers, injured athletes and anybody who needs to keep warm.
