The elastic adhesive bandage made by Farmalastic is used to maintain compression to relieve pain and stop swelling in case of sprains and bruises. It is also very useful for joints, muscle injuries and holding dressings.
The Farmalastic adhesive elastic bandage is designed to provide the support and compression that certain areas of the body need in the presence of different conditions. Among its most common uses is to avoid the lengthening of muscular injuries. For this purpose, it is necessary to immobilise the muscle, as well as the joints that mobilise the muscle.
In addition, thanks to their adhesive capacity, it is very easy to make the necessary adjustments and maintain the pressure to avoid involuntary movements and friction.
They are also very useful for supporting certain parts of the body such as the ankles in case of sprains and strains. Proper and timely bandaging aids the recovery process and helps to form a flexible scar. This is very important for the ligament because hardening of the ligament causes pain and makes relapse more likely.
For dressing fixation, these bandages offer the convenience of conforming to the shape of the body and holding the dressing precisely.
Among the preventive functions of elastic adhesive bandages is to protect the knees of those who practice sports such as mountaineering, jumping or gymnastics. In the case of mountaineering, their use can be particularly useful during the descent, as the joints are exposed to greater impact. The use of adhesive bandages allows the appropriate adaptation to the shape of the body and the safety required by the athlete.
Farmaciasdirect recommends the use of this elastic adhesive bandage for those who have sprains or strains or want better support in joints such as knees and ankles.
It is also of great help for those who need to hold dressings or immobilise any area of the body or practice sports in which the joints require support.
Cleanse the skin properly, even if shaving is necessary. As you apply the bandage, you should have approximately 30 cm of bandage unrolled to ensure a uniform bandage.
For compression bandaging, it is necessary to follow the doctor's instructions as failure to do so properly can cause discomfort and counterproductive effects.
To optimise their lifetime, it is recommended to wash these bandages by hand and not to expose them to a temperature higher than 30 °C.
