Elastic bandages are "stretchable bandages used to generate local pressure". Elastic bandages are usually used to treat muscle sprains and strains. They reduce blood flow to specific areas by applying steady pressure, thereby limiting swelling in the injured area. Elastic bandages are also used to treat fractures.
Crepe bandage is a strong support crepe for medium and long-term bandaging needs. They are ideal for fixing wound dressings, supporting strain, and providing compression to reduce swelling.
