Guest guest Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 I have been getting bandaged twice a week now for about 18 months and I am starting to wonder wether its actually effective. The bandage is thick and stops me moving my ankle properly or wearing proper shoes. My question is... Does anyone else have experience of compression bandages being used to treat PG ( and EN where suitable ) and if so, did they help? Of course I know I need bandages of some sort and I am told that the compression ones ( possibly called something else in USA?? ) are what is normally used. It consists of a thick layer of cotton wool wadding over suitable wound dressings then 2 layers of cotten bandages and a thick stretchy outer layer, overall the thing looks a bit like a thin plaster cast but is more flexible than plaster.
