Guest guest Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 Sharon, Good idea! I have been wrapping my wrists up when out in the garden and lately wrapping up my ankle when it is hurting or I have to walk a neighbors house close by. Untl next Tuesday when I get the results of my X-Rays I won't be taking the chance to walk into town. Anything that helps is a blessing isn't it? Love you all, Wally > I looked for a long time for a compression bandage that I could wear > on a finger or thumb when a knuckle hurt (they don't make Ace > bandages that small). My index and middle finger on my right hand have been swollen up like little sausages for several days, so I cut about eight inches off a two inch wide ace bandage, then split it in half lengthwise with a pair of scissors. This gave me two ine inch wide, eight inch long "mini bandages". I wrapped my two fingers with them and fastened the wraps with scotch tape before I went to bed last night. Hurray! I have fingers instead of sausages. Thanks for the idea, Beth. Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
