How To Wrap a Knee Post Surgery
- 1). Apply medicate gauze around the knee two or three times.
- 2). Wrap the gauze in a figure eight around the knee about 10 times.
- 3). Wrap the elastic bandage around the knee, starting six inches above the gauze.
- 4). Use moderate tension as the knee is wrapped downward. Do not wrap too tightly where there is a loss of circulation.
- 5). Continue wrapping so about four layers of bandage are around the knee.
- 6). Finish wrapping with the end of the bandage above the knee.
