Tubigrip Elasticated Tubular Bandages provide tissue support for the treatment of strains and sprains; soft tissue injuries; joint effusions; general edema; post-burn scarring; and rib cage injuries, and they may also be used for pressure dressings and arm fixation. Tubigrip provides lasting, effective support with complete freedom of movement for the patient. Once the bandage has been applied, the covered elastic threads within the fabric move to adjust to the contours of the body and distribute pressure evenly over the surface. Fitting is quick and easy, and unlike conventional crepe bandages, Tubigrip stays securely in position without tape or pins.
