Tubular Stockinette

Tubular Stockinettes For Lymphedema

Tubular stockinette is used as an integral part of multi-layered compression bandages.

As the initial layer of compression bandages, (which are often used in the treatment and management of lymphedema), a tubular stockinette covered by padding can help protect fragile skin from the pressure caused by bandages.

Tubular stockinette is available in either standard inelastic or elastic varieties, and is made from either 100% cotton or synthetic materials. The elastic tubular stockinette is woven to enable the stockinette to conform to the shape of the limb, and the elasticity of the fabric allows the stockinette to accommodate swelling, without discomfort or constriction.

Our selection of tubular stockinette includes:

• PolySoft tubular stockinette for lymphedema
• Alba tubular stockinette for lymphedema
• TG tubular stockinette for lymphedema
• Tricofix tubular stockinette for lymphedema
• TG Jersey cotton tubular stockinette for lymphedema
• Alba synthetic tubular stockinette for lymphedema

Before applying a tubular stockinette, it’s recommended that you use a suitable skin care lotion, to help keep the skin moist and healthy.
