RockTape Precut Edema Strips - Box of 20 Strips 4" x 10" - Beige
RockTape Precut Edema strips are used to relieve swelling, bruising, edema and lymphedema. Each precut strip is 4" wide x 10" long with a 2" base and 5 separate "fingers. Also referred to as fan cuts, the fingers are spread out like a fan over an area of swelling to encourage drainage of fluid and blood that accumulates after trauma or surgery. Each box contains 20 individual edema applications that can be worn for 5-7 days. Pre-cut edema strips are machine cut with rounded corners, reducing the fraying and curling that can occur when tape is cut by hand. Application is quick and simple. Start by folding and tearing the backing along the cut lines and where the anchor end meets the fingers. Remove the backing from the anchor end and apply according to package directions. Apply the fingers, one at a time, over the swollen or bruised area. Each box includes a poster with general application instructions, plus instructions for edema taping of the shoulder, ankle, thigh, knee, calf, ribs and lower back.
