Excellent goods. It is important to follow medical advice regarding proper use.

Review by Mrs. LI Always keep a koban of various sizes at home for unforeseen circumstances. A few years ago I saw an occupational therapist for severe pain and inflammation in the joint that connects my thumb to my hand. I was illustrating a book and was in excruciating pain from hours of drawing, coloring and shading the images. My OT climbed into her office, pulled out a 1 inch roll of Coban and wrapped some sort of bandage around my thumb which stabilized it. Suddenly the pain disappeared. Now I use it all the time to reduce inflammation in my thumb when I write or draw a lot. Coban is a wonderful product. It's flexible when you need it, but can also provide stable support. They can be difficult to use at first. It's best to have a doctor demonstrate its use and I should pull and stretch the koban gently, being careful not to stretch it too much AND making sure it sticks to you, especially when you reach the end . around a scraped knuckle without the need for tape or tape. He held the bandage in place fairly well. I also like its use for compression, like the Ace Bandage. I'm very careful not to use it so it's limiting because once it's in place it won't move, I tend to be careful and avoid putting it in the same place over and over again move. I think it's important to consult a doctor, nurse or therapist about the proper use of Coban, which is what I did.
