• A cotton-crepe bandage: made of cotton or a cotton-blend fabric with a crepe (textured) finish. For example one listing calls it “Cotton-Rayon Blend Fast Edge Elastic Cotton Crepe Bandage”.
• “Fast Edges” refers to specially finished edges — usually tightly stitched, non-fraying edges. Eg: “fast and non-fraying edges”.
• It is used for support/compression of limbs: strains, sprains, joints, post-treatment of fractures/dislocations etc.
• Sizes given in listings: e.g., 6 cm × 4 m, 8 cm × 4 m, 10 cm × 4 m, 15 cm × 4 m.

🎯 Key features & benefits

• Firm support and compression: Helps stabilize an injured area (sprain, strain) or provide compression to reduce swelling.
• Skin-friendly material: Soft, breathable cotton or cotton-blend, so comfortable to wear.
• Reusable & washable (for some variants): The “Wellness Surgical” listing mentions it is reusable and washable.

🧴 How to use

1. Choose the correct width (based on area to bandage).
2. Clean/dry the area.
3. Start wrapping from one end (distal) moving upwards (proximal) for limbs.
4. Apply firm but not overly tight — ensure circulation is not cut off.
5. Secure with clips or adhesive if provided.
6. Check periodically for signs of numbness/coldness.
7. Wash (if reusable) following manufacturer instructions.
8. Remove once healing/support period is over or as advised by specialist.

👍 Advantages & some considerations

Advantages:

• Good for support & compression without bulky brace.
• Cotton or slightly elastic material = comfort + flexibility.
• Durable (“fast edges”) means less fraying, longer life.
• Relatively affordable & widely available in India.

Considerations:

• Not a substitute for a rigid brace when high stability is required (e.g., serious ligament tears) — best used as support/prevention or mild/moderate injury.
• Must ensure correct application; too tight can impair circulation.
• If reusable, ensure good hygiene (wash & dry well).
• For heavy sweating/excessive movement, may slip unless well secured.
