Tubular support bandages are elastic, non-latex fabric sleeves worn externally around limbs to provide gentle support or localized pressure to joints or soft tissues. They help stabilize injuries, reduce swelling, and improve mobility during recovery, often used for sprains, strains, or post-surgical support.
These devices are typically reusable and designed for single-patient use, with variations tailored to specific body parts like ankles, knees, or wrists. Regulation and classification depend on jurisdiction, but they are generally treated as medical devices due to their clinical applications and intended use.
