It helps calm the itching and inflammation that so often accompany chronic venous insufficiency, while the moldable bandage conforms to the contours of the calf and ankle for a firm, even wrap. Once applied, it dries to a semi-rigid supportive layer that encourages venous return with every step—the reason Unna boots are a mainstay for ambulatory patients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing between 3-inch and 4-inch widths\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonest Medical carries Gelocast in two roll widths, both 10 yards long, beige, and non-sterile:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 in. x 10 yds (01052)\u003c\/strong\u003e — better control around the narrower ankle and for smaller limbs, giving you a cleaner wrap without excess bunching.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 in. x 10 yds (01053)\u003c\/strong\u003e — faster coverage over the calf and larger-diameter legs, meaning fewer passes to build your compression layer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany clinicians keep both on hand, using the narrower roll to anchor at the foot and ankle before switching to the wider roll up the leg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eApplying and wearing an Unna boot\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn Unna boot is typically applied by a clinician from the base of the toes to just below the knee, then covered with a secondary compression or self-adherent wrap.

Always confirm adequate arterial circulation before applying compression, and follow your provider's wear schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOrder the Gelocast width that matches your protocol, and reach out if you'd like guidance on pairing it with an outer compression layer.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"gelocast-unna-boot","title":"Gelocast Unna Boot","description":"This Gelocast Unna Boot is impregnated with calamine to soothe irritated skin, and its non-raveling, 100% cotton gauze base reduces wastage and is uniformly coated and dries quickly so that it is easy to handle and mold to the limb thereby providing a semi-rigid cast that is ideal for immobilization of strains and sprains.
