ACTICO COHESIVE INELASTIC BANDAGE SYSTEM

FEATURES

Actico inelastic compression bandages are clinically proven to help your leg ulcer heal and/or treat swollen ankles and legs.
The bandages are compression bandages, which means they ‘squeeze’ your limb.
The gentle squeezing pushes the body fluids (either/or blood and lymph) back to where they need to go.
Actico bandages will reduce swollen ankles and legs and help any wound to heal.
They are firm, but comfortable.
They feel firmer when you are up and about, or moving your calf muscle.
They feel less firm when you are lying down or in bed, so that you are able to have a comfortable night’s sleep.
If your entire leg is swollen, the whole leg will be bandaged. This may seem a bit bulky at first, but it is the most effective way of reducing swelling - normally producing fast results.

ACTICO FOR LEGS

Leg ulcers(a wound on the leg which has not healed after several weeks) are surprisingly common
Up to 1% of adults in the UK will have one at sometime in their lives
Swollen legs and ankles are equally common, either with or without a leg ulcer
The swelling is made up of lymph fluid, which is unable to drain back into the lymphatic system
