- Sprains and Strains: Its primary use is to support injured muscles, ligaments, and joints (such as the wrist, hand, ankle, or elbow) to prevent further damage and promote healing.
- Compression Therapy: Applying compression helps to alleviate pain and reduce swelling by preventing fluid accumulation and promoting better blood circulation in the affected area.
- Wound Dressing Securing: It can be used to hold sterile wound dressings or cold packs firmly in place, protecting the injury from dirt and bacteria.
