How to dry properly

Boxing gloves should be dried after cleaning or washing, keeping in the fresh air. But direct sunlight should not hit. If boxing products are dried in an apartment, then they should be kept suspended away from open sources of fire and heating appliances. Otherwise, the surface will crack quickly.

The washed gloves dry for 2-4 days. For what:

• unfasten the Velcro;
• open the mittens wider, leave in this position.

Boxing gloves have a rough, dense material. The layer of filler inside is thick, which dries for a long time - up to 7 days. During this time, the reproduction of bacterial flora is possible.

It is recommended to accelerate the drying process by drawing out the remaining moisture from the inside. To help - a shoe dryer, a crumpled newspaper, a regular hair dryer. The main thing is not to dry in the sun or a hot battery, so as not to damage the material.

Hair dryer

Stuff the insides with paper, dry with a hairdryer. But you should not get carried away with this method, so as not to damage the material.

How to wash reusable protective equipment?

Another thing is a mask made of gauze, bandage or fabric. It can and even needs to be washed, as well as ironed from the inside and outside. How to do it correctly?

• The washing machine is suitable for washing fabric protectors. Fabric masks are machine washable very well. Recommendations for care and choice of mode should be found on the label. Products that were sewn on their own are washed depending on the type of material: polyester - at 30-40 degrees, cotton - at 60 degrees.
• Gauze bandages are washed with hands in a basin. Gauze and bandage, unlike fabric, are easily deformed when wet. Therefore, it is better to wash the mask with your hands in a warm soapy solution. After washing, the products are not twisted, but only pressed slightly to remove excess moisture.

An exception is the protective equipment, into which the filter is sewn. For example, cotton wool. In fact, such a mask becomes disposable: you need to either remove the filter layer or throw out the entire product.

Detergents

You can use a standard detergent to wash your medical masks. If washing is carried out in cold water, give preference to shampoos and gels. Most powders only work in hot water.

Boiling

It is known that most bacteria and viruses can be killed by boiling for 3 minutes. Coronaviruses die at a temperature of +56 degrees, which is even less than the boiling point of water. Therefore, it is not necessary to boil the masks. For disinfection of the product, ordinary washing and ironing with an iron on both sides is sufficient.

Drying

It is preferable to dry the protective equipment in the sun. The sun's rays are a source of ultraviolet radiation, which has disinfecting properties. If this is not possible, the product is dried on the battery.

How often should the mask be washed (changed)?
The duration of wearing varies from 2 to 6 hours. It all depends on the conditions in which the protective equipment is used. In hospitals and closed rooms, with direct contact with an infected person, it can be worn for no longer than 2 hours. It is also necessary to change the mask immediately if it becomes wet.

Is it possible, instead of washing, to treat the product with an antiseptic or iron it?
Only as an emergency measure. Nevertheless, washing has great efficiency: it contributes to the mechanical removal of viruses, particles of saliva, and other biological secretions. Antiseptic and iron treatment kills the coronavirus, but besides it there are other, more tenacious types of bacteria and viruses.

How effective are medical masks against coronavirus?
With early use, medical masks can prevent contamination in public places. According to the test results, they are effective in 8 cases out of 9. (SanPiN 2.1.3.2630-10).

Improper use of a medical mask increases the risk of contracting a viral disease. After a few hours of wearing, it turns into a breeding ground for germs and viruses. For a remedy to work effectively, you need to change it on time. Disposable masks are thrown into the trash bin, after which hands are washed with soap. The reusable dressings can be washed in the washing machine or by hand. If the water temperature is less than 60 degrees, the product must be additionally ironed on both sides.

The nuances of using a washing machine

If we are talking about a modern device with the ability to select and disable functions, then the elastic bandage can be washed in this way.

In this case, you need to pay attention to the following points:

• Do not spread the bandages flat in the drum. We fold them into a free ring and place them in a washing bag.
• Again, only cool water can be used, its temperature should not exceed 30 ° C.

• It is best to wash with liquid enzyme powders, they will not spoil the texture of the material, and all dirt will be easily removed.
• We turn off the spinning and drying, otherwise the bandages will necessarily stretch, be damaged, the rubber threads will partially burst. We choose the most gentle washing mode. If you have serious concerns, then you can turn off the rinsing. In this case, it will be possible to independently rinse the items correctly and in water of a suitable temperature after pre-treatment.

Even if all of the above recommendations are followed, the bandage will gradually wear out, losing its original density.Fulfillment of the conditions of correct and regular care guarantees the products 2.5-3 months of serviceable service, sometimes even a little longer. After this, the devices will have to be replaced.

Returning the bandage to the pharmacy

Can compression stockings be returned to the store? According to the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 55 dated 01.19.1998, the acquired hosiery is not subject to exchange and return. If the size did not suit you, you didn’t like the chosen color, or you changed your mind about making a purchase, you cannot return the elastic stockings to the store.

How to avoid mistakes when choosing compression stockings? - Consult a phlebologist before purchasing. The doctor will examine you and help you choose the correct compression class medical stockings.

It is possible that instead of stockings the phlebologist will recommend wearing compression knee-highs or tights. - Carefully measure your legs according to the compression stockings selection scheme. Write down your measurements in the instructions that came with the stockings.

If you took your measurements correctly, compared them with the compression product selection table, and made sure that you chose the right size, the stockings will probably suit you.

Can spunbond be washed: thinking together

If you think logically, then you can erase the covering material. Indeed, on the site, it can withstand both prolonged rains and heat at +40 ° C, or even higher. This means we can wash spunbond at temperatures that are outside in summer. Doubts are caused by the effect of washing powder. Some gardeners believe that washing can remove some kind of protective layer or impregnation.

Impregnation is mentioned only in connection with the fastening of these threads to each other, that is, some brands are obtained by chemical bonding, but in most cases thermal bonding is used - soldering.

Spunbond production scheme by thermal bonding

If your spunbond is obtained by impregnation with chemical binders, then it is possible that it will fluff under the influence of powder and high temperatures. To test, wash one small piece. But judging by the reviews on the forums ("Bolshoy Voprosy.ru", "Country Forum", WEBSad), as well as on the social network, the material is being erased, and after that it has been serving for more than one year.

Spunbond washing instructions:

1. Dry dirty linens by hanging them on a fence or clothesline. Damp, adhering pieces of dirt will be difficult to shake off without drying.
2. Shake well, free from entangled blades of grass, hidden insects, etc.
3. If there is a lot of dirt on the fabric, first soak it in a barrel or tub, maybe with soap.
4. Machine wash at 30-40 ° C on a gentle cycle.
5. Dry in the usual way (drying or hanging on a string).

There are gardeners who sew up holes in spunbond and even iron them after washing, which is not without logic: under the influence of temperature, the fibers that have detached from each other can stick together again.

Terms of use

Improper application of an elastic bandage on the patient's lower extremities can lead to complications, therefore, before bandaging, you need to find out how to do it correctly.

How to bandage correctly

1. Bandaging is carried out in the morning. Before the procedure, the patient should be in a horizontal position for at least 5-10 minutes. The leg is lifted up to apply an elastic bandage. The foot is held at an angle of 90 ° to the lower leg.
2. Begin to apply the bandage in the direction from the ankle to the base of the toes, gripping the heel. In the opposite direction, twine up to a third of the lower leg or above the knee joint.
3. Each subsequent turn must overlap at least half of the previous turn. A figure of eight is applied to the heel so that the bandage does not slip when worn.
4. The strips are spaced evenly, covering all parts of the limb. The greatest tension of the elastic bandage should be in the ankle area. At the top of the leg, the tension is relaxed.
5. If, in a calm state, the tips of the fingers turned slightly blue, and when walking, the pink color returned to them, then this indicates compliance with the rules for applying a bandage for varicose veins.
6. Each limb is wrapped in a separate bandage.
7. The product is washed by hand with laundry soap, not wrung out, dried in a straightened state on a cotton pad.

How much to wear an elastic bandage

For prevention and in the postoperative period, doctors advise wearing an elastic bandage during the day, and remove it at night. The patient can set the mode of wearing it for himself.

Extensibility

Elastic bandages are divided according to the degree of elongation. It is in the range of 30-170%. The material has: long, medium and short extensibility. At the early stage of the disease, bandages with a long degree of extensibility are used (lengthened by 140% or more), since they maintain uniform pressure on the limb during exercise and at rest.

Short extensibility of the material - no more than 70% is used in the treatment of advanced forms of the disease.

It has an elongation of 70-140%. The last two types of elastic bandages create more pressure during exercise and minimize it at rest. Additional layers increase the working pressure.

How to dry a product properly

It is important to dry the bandage properly after washing. It is forbidden to put it on a battery, hang it on the street, where it will be exposed to direct sunlight

The clothesline also does not need to be dried. In order for the bandage to retain its shape, it can be put in a horizontal position. A dryer works well. If you do not have this item, then spread a regular towel on the floor or table, fold the elastic bandages several times, layers and lay on the towel.

It is not recommended to use fabric softeners or other emollients. Without spinning, so as not to spoil the lance, elasticity and not to break the rubber thread. All stretch items can be washed this way. When washing in a washing machine, the water should be cool. It is not recommended to wash the bandage only when it is completely dirty; it is not recommended to do this after each wearing process.

Simple rules and useful tips for washing an elastic bandage will allow you to extend the period of using the product.

It is necessary to take into account the service life of the bandage.

Most people do not read instructions for even complex electronics, cell phones or household appliances, and even more so they do not read instructions written in small print on the wrapper of elastic bandages, stockings or tights. Therefore, after a few days of wearing medical jersey, when it starts to get dirty, they have a reasonable question - is it possible to wash an elastic bandage and how to do it. By this time, the wrapper of the bandage has long been thrown away, and you have to look for an answer to your question on the Internet or from friends. If you are faced with such a situation, it will be useful for you to read a few simple but important rules for the care of medical compression hosiery. These rules apply not only to elastic bandages or stockings, but also to bandages, corsets, hernial belts and other elastic products containing rubber thread. As you know, rubber is a rather fragile material, especially if it is a thin thread that is used in medical knitwear. Such a thread can be broken without much difficulty; moreover, under the influence of high temperatures and direct rays of the sun, the rubber crumbles and cracks. The rules for the care of elastic bandages are based on these properties of rubber.Elastic bandages, stockings, tights and other medical knitwear should be washed as soon as they become dirty. The water for washing must be cool, you cannot use washing powders, it is not allowed to twist products from medical knitwear, but they must be dried in a horizontal position, laid out on a dryer or a towel away from heat sources (radiators, heaters) and direct sunlight

Wring out the washed bandage or stockings carefully and carefully, folding them in several layers. Based on experience, it is possible to recommend washing bandages and other compression hosiery in modern washing machines on a gentle mode in cool water using mild detergents

Sooner or later, medical jersey will lose its elasticity, in which case it will need to be replaced with a new one.

High-quality elastic bandages with daily use and with proper care last about 2.5-3 months, sometimes longer. Therefore, if the doctor recommends bandaging the leg for 6 months, it makes sense to immediately buy two bandages in order to tie them alternately - one on the leg, and the second dries after washing. It should be added that elastic bandages are NOT contraindicated for almost anyone (only in very rare cases)! They are often prescribed prophylactically to healthy people, athletes, people doing hard work, etc., so don't be afraid to use them. Of course, if you have any specific complaints, it is best to see a doctor first so as not to miss a serious illness. And in order to understand whether you urgently need to see a doctor or the situation does not pose any danger, read the book "My legs hurt ... What to do?" There you will find answers to many questions about vascular diseases and their prevention. Be healthy!

For prevention or treatment, special knitwear is used

It is important to know how to wash the elastic bandage in order to extend its life. Strong cotton threads and special elastic bands included in the composition are easily exposed to negative effects

Proper care helps to maintain the desired properties and not harm health.

Features of compression hosiery

As part of elastic bandages there are elastic bands - this is a rather fragile material. The same can be attributed to other medical products: hernial girdles, stockings, corsets and bandages. Such a thread breaks easily, stretches. Usually, the period of use is limited to 3 months, but with proper care (washing and drying) it can be extended to six months.

The main thing is to preserve all the properties that medicinal products have. They are often still used for preventive purposes, by athletes and people with heavy physical exertion. Therefore, if the pressure is not properly distributed, complications can arise.

Types of elastic bandages

The elastic bandage Lauma possesses the highest degree of elongation, which has a peculiarity - it includes a latex thread covered with cotton fibers. It is used for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory processes in the veins. Recommended in the postoperative period.

Detergents

Do not use aggressive detergents for washing elastic products, as they will damage the elastic bands. Toxic substances are very difficult to wash out with water, which will negatively affect the skin. This is especially true for whiteness.

The best choices are powders for baby clothes, laundry soap and phosphate-free mixtures. If the skin is sensitive (capable of giving an allergic reaction), then it is worth using special non-toxic products.

Washing options

Whether the medical elastic bandage is washed can be determined by the contamination. It usually gets dirty after one or two weeks. It all depends on the method of use and the time spent in it.

Handwash

The effectiveness of the elastic bandage is often lost after the first wash.In order to avoid this, you should follow the rules:

• Use only lukewarm or cool water, as hot liquid will cause the cotton base to shrink.
• First dissolve the detergent completely and then soak the elastic bandage for about 30 minutes.
• Strong friction during washing will stretch the base, which will deform the garment.

Machine wash

It should be said right away that it is permissible to use only modern technology with the ability to completely turn off and make a choice with a machine. To avoid the loss of the healing properties of an elastic bandage, it is worth studying the conditions:

• Water heating should not exceed 30˚.
• The delicate wash is ideal for the garment.
• Completely turn off the spinning and drying mode.
• It is better to pre-pack an elastic bandage in a special bag or net, collecting it in a free ring.

Correct drying

Drying elastic linen is not the last thing when washing, since improper actions can not only harm, but destroy the useful properties of the product.

The natural way for bandages is optimal. All heating devices should be excluded. These include radiators and various heating devices. Hanging on a clothesline in the sun is also not an option.

The best way is to lay the elastic bandage horizontally on the terry cloth using a dryer. If this item is absent, then any flat surface is quite suitable: table, floor.

Storage rules

To avoid frequent washings and to preserve the product, you need to know the rules of care. Often athletes use an elastic bandage during competition and training to avoid injury. A wet dressing can harbor germs that multiply quickly in a humid environment.

To maintain the quality of the product, daily washing is excluded. Therefore, it is recommended to use special antimicrobial sprays and dry naturally. People who use medicated knitwear all day should also heed these tips.

Store the product dry and rolled up away from sunlight and heating devices.
