They didn't mention to put lotion on arm before wrapping, but it saves you from getting dry itchy skin after wearing all day/night.

Thank you for this feedback, Angela. Best wishes to you.

What size is the Elastomull bandage? Thanks.

[@mdanderson]

Hi Sarah, the elastomull used in the video is a 4” bandage folded in half. Since there are different sizes available, it's best to choose the size that fits around your fingers and hand appropriately. Best wishes to you.
