What does a Tubigrip do?
Tubigrip is a brand of elastic bandages commonly used to provide support and compression to injured or swollen limbs, such as sprained ankles or knees. It is made of a stretchy, breathable material that allows the skin to breathe and can be cut to the desired length. It is often used in conjunction with other forms of treatment, such as physical therapy or medication. It is easy to apply and adjust and can be worn for extended periods of time.
Tubigrip is a compression and supportive tubular bandage that is used for mild forms of edema, after plaster treatment, for varicose veins and for strains of tendons or ligaments. In addition, Tubigrip compressive tubular bandages are used to protect the skin and clothing against ointments and creams or as a fixation of various wound dressings. Under a bandage or cast, the tubular bandage protects the skin.
How is Tubigrip applied?
It is applied twice and gives an even pressure all over. The correct size and pressure can be determined exactly using the measuring strip. Application is quick and easy, and unlike conventional crepe bandages, Tubigrip stays firmly in position without pins or tapes.
Because it can be washed and reused, Tubigrip can certainly be used for outpatients and home care. Tubigrip is cost effective as only the required amount is cut from the roll.
