How does it work?
Calculate using the flat width to estimate the size needed. Measure circumference of the widest part of the area needing compression, divide measurement in half and select the size closest to the measurement.
- Cut Tubigrip to twice the length required for limb, allowing an extra 2–3cm for overlap.
- Pull Tubigrip onto limb like a stocking.
- Double Tubigrip back over the limb.
- Ensure upper edge is taken 2–3cm higher up the limb than the first.
- Always use as a double layer.
