Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use a crepe bandage?
Use a crepe bandage for light support on sprains, strains, and minor joint injuries where some movement is desirable during recovery. For rigid immobilisation, use zinc oxide tape or EAB strapping. Crepe bandages are also used to secure splints and hold ice packs in position.
How do I apply a crepe bandage correctly?
Start below the injured area and wrap upwards in overlapping spiral turns, covering half of the previous layer with each pass. Maintain even tension throughout - firm enough to provide support but not tight enough to restrict blood flow. Secure the end with a clip or tape. Check circulation beyond the bandage regularly.
