I'm a new grad PT, and I have a patient with lymphadema as a result of cancer and I was so lost on how to help them but your videos have helped SO MUCH. THANK YOU!!

[amorosa]

Thank you Kelly. I had not seen the wrapping actually done since my lymphedema started, many years ago, and I went through the complete treatment. I loved to see that still remember how to do it!

[markaxt]

Thank you for your videos. They have been of great value.

Hello, im a PT and im just wondering how long should the patient wear the bandaging and when do they take it off?

[marloop]

Can you wrap the arm without wrapping fingers too? Just wondering how to cook when fingers and arm are wrapped.

[small-timegarden]

How do you advice on hygiene for the patient having done these wraps, please? I actually am asking this with patients who have lower limb lymphedema. Thank you very much

[amorosa]

Do you think the Circaid sleeve with the straps that mimic the wrapping works at least close enough to the real thing that it could similarly work?

[joycebacchus]

I was womdering how do you take showers i do have mild lymphedema .

[divyab]

Hi does the bandaging help or restrict arm movement.

[sarahw.]

How can you see if your skin is covered on the back of your hand if you wrapped over the stockinette?? I have never seen anyone wrap over the stockinette on a hand; it is usually folded back, the hand wrapped, then the stockinette pulled down to cover the Elastomull/gauze.

Just had my lumpectomy breast surgery 9 days ago and my under arm are swelling. Just right under my arm above my right breast where the surgery was done. My arm was actually fine except the upper arm feel a little bit sensation of fibrosis but very mild. So in my case how should I bandage my swelling under arm? Should I wrap or bandage around my chest and my breast ? I will be much obliged if you could help me out. Thank you in advance.

[ЕленаШевцова-мр]

Спасибо большое! Жаль не понимаю английский язык. Но и так понятно.

Can you do a self wrapping video for velcro garment on arm please? I have been shown once how to do it by the therapist who did it, my husband seems to think like all other things I should learn to do myself, but since August I have been canceling rescheduling my appointments. I'm embarrassed because I cannot do it right and usually just end up having a tantrum, crying and just wrap it however tightly. Honestly I feel like they should have just taken the arm off along with the cancerous lymph nodes during my surgery two years ago.
