Arnica cream wrap
The skin must never turn white during cold applications - risk of local hypothermia!
Application Areas:
- Sprains, bruises and contusions
Ingredients:
- Inner cloth (Fustian)
- Middle cloth (Cotton gauze)
- Outer cloth (Fustian or molleton)
- Possibly elastic bandage
- Arnica cream (caution with known sensitivity to arnica)
Apply arnica cream to the fustian. Place the compress on the affected area and wrap it with the cotton gauze. Depending on the size, secure the whole thing with the fustian, molleton or an elastic bandage.
Replace the compress when it becomes warm.
