Indications 

The Elastoplast Fabric Extra Flexible Dressing Strip is a type of bandage designed to be flexible and conform to the body’s contours. It is made from a breathable fabric material that allows air to circulate, helping to promote healing. The dressing strip has a non-stick wound pad that protects and cushions the wound, providing comfort and preventing the bandage from sticking to the skin. 

The Elastoplast Fabric Extra Flexible Dressing Strip is water-repellent, which means it can be used in wet environments without compromising its effectiveness. This makes it suitable for use during activities such as swimming or showering. 

Use and Dosage 

To use the Elastoplast Fabric Extra Flexible Dressing Strip (Bandage), follow these steps: 

1. Start by cleaning the wound or affected area with mild soap and water. Gently pat dry the skin surrounding the wound. 
2. Unroll the Elastoplast Fabric Extra Flexible Dressing Strip and position the non-stick wound pad over the wound, ensuring that it covers it completely. The wound pad should cushion and protect the wound. 
3. Wrap the Elastoplast Fabric Extra Flexible Dressing Strip around the wound, making sure to apply gentle pressure to ensure a secure fit. The flexible nature of the bandage allows it to conform to the contours of the body, providing a comfortable and snug fit. 
4. If the dressing strip is longer than needed, you can trim it with scissors to the desired length. Make sure to leave enough bandage to provide adequate coverage for the wound. 
5. Regularly check the dressing strip and change it as needed. If it becomes wet, dirty, or starts to peel off, replace it with a fresh one to maintain cleanliness and promote proper healing. 

Remember, the Elastoplast Fabric Extra Flexible Dressing Strip is designed for minor wounds and injuries. If you have a more severe or deep wound, seek medical attention.
