How to Wrap a Shoulder by Yourself?

Published in First Aid 1 min read

Wrapping a shoulder yourself can be done effectively by using an elastic bandage and following a figure-eight pattern.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to wrap your shoulder:

  1. Start Wrapping: Begin by wrapping the elastic bandage around your arm.
  2. Figure-Eight Pattern: Create a figure-eight pattern by repeatedly wrapping around the arm and across the shoulder. This ensures proper support and coverage.
  3. Secure the Bandage: After several wraps, secure the bandage with the provided elastic clips, or if using a self-adhering bandage, smooth it down to ensure it sticks to itself.
