Medline Non-Sterile Tubular Stockinettes, 2"x 25 yd, 1 Roll

Love this tubing. I got it for my senior shepherd, who has to wear a boot to keep from scraping his claws and back paws till they're bloody because he drags them. I cut a long piece and fold it over on the end to form a sock and it works great. I also use it to protect his front paw from skin irritation when I put a brace on to support his wrist joint from hyperextending. And I use it on my own wrist when I wear a brace. It's super comfy and I think stretches just the right amount.

I purchased this product to apply a synthetic cast to a friend's hand. She punched a wall which resulted in her having a boxers fracture to her pinky knuckle. The photos show the plaster cast that was put on by an actual doctor at a nearby Urgent Care Clinic (too bad I can't review his work on Amazon lol) and the second pic is the synthetic cast I applied for her. No I am NOT a doctor, nurse, physicians assistant or any type of medical professional. Just someone that knows how to watch a YouTube video and wanted to help a friend out. Back to the product (sorry)... Anyway, this cast stocking was perfect. It wasn't too flexible but flexible enough as to not put too much pressure on the hand while casted. I chose to use some organic moleskin attached to the cotton undercast padding and wrap that around her bare skin first before applying the cast stocking over her hand. I did this to have a way to draw any moister that may get into the cast and/or between it and her hand away from her skin and reduce the potential for a fungal or bacterial infection on/in the skin. The cast stocking still fit nicely and not to snug over her hand even with the Undercast padding and moleskin. I'm sure this stuff has many other useful purposes but I used it for its intended purpose and was please with its quality and ease of use. My only suggestion would be that the box have a way to allow the cast stocking to be pulled out and cut without having to remove the entire roll. In closing I want to say that I do not recommend other ppl trying this. I had her sign a statement that I did not charge her to cast her hand and that if anything went wrong she would not sue me or hold me accountable in any way. She's a close friend and honestly, I don't think anyone could've done a worse job than the doctor at the urgent care clinic did. Yes his is the PLASTER cast and mine was the blue fiberglass cast.

I intentionally bought large ones for him to wear under sequential compression boots, without providing even more compression. They work well, not hot under the boots and protect his skin from the plastic.

I broke both ankles and needed stockinettes to cover surgical bandages while in CAM boots and braces while recuperating. This roll was convenient as I could cut off whatever length I needed. I was also able to machine wash/dry the stockinettes several times with no problem, so a roll could last a long time. (Of course, you don't need to launder them if you don't want to, and you'd still have plenty left.) The reason I'm giving 4 stars is because the material is very stretchy. In my case, this meant the stockinettes moved around, bunched up, rolled down, etc., which was annoying and uncomfortable. It would have helped somewhat if I'd sewn the toes shut, but I was staying with a relative and didn't have easy access to sewing materials even if I felt like bothering (which I didn't). All in all, this roll was convenient, nice quality, and good value, but shy of excellent. I'd still recommend it with a caveat.

I had a splint from almost my elbow to over 2 fingers. It was a hard plastic that was cold or if it was warm outside my arm sweated & stuck to it. This can be cut to any length, placed on the arm under the splint. I actually used 2 pieces since my splint went over 2 fingers. I sliced it up most the one side so it circled the fingers & laid on my arm. Then I cut another piece the right length & just sliced across a little to make room for my thumb. It was comfortable, splint was no longer cold. It is cheap enough that it could be replaced as it got dirty. Nothing sticky like tape. Can also be used to cover over gauze dressings.

purchased the Medline Non-Sterile Tubular Stockinettes to cover my pet's surgery area on his neck, as the hospital only sent one home for post-surgery care. Fortunately, they no longer send pets home with cones, which is a positive change. Although I didn’t need such a large bundle, I bought it anyway because I needed to change his stockinette regularly. It worked perfectly for this purpose. Additionally, I was advised to apply a warm compress if his incision area swelled. When it did, I bought hot/cold compresses from Amazon. Initially, I used a washcloth between his tender skin and the compress, but it kept falling off. The Tubular Stockinette worked perfectly as a cover, functioning like a pillowcase around the compress. I didn’t realize how versatile these stockinettes are until now. Initially, I bought them to cover my pet’s neck after surgery to keep the wound clean and prevent him from scratching. I knew they could be useful in my first aid kit for covering arms, casts, wounds, etc. However, I discovered they also work wonderfully as covers for hot/cold compresses when used on sensitive skin. Overall, these stockinettes have proven to be incredibly handy and versatile and of good quality. I’m very pleased with this purchase.

The product is good for the price and the amount you get but the box was partly opened when I got the item and inside the first layers of roll had a bit of dust/dirt or stains.

The fabric is very soft. Maybe a little too thin and stretchy, but once it is on my arm it feels good. I am presently wearing a custom splint for an injury to my thumb and wrist. This fabric is very breathable and wearing this product under my splint, my palm, wrist and arm don't sweat as much as with the thicker product used at the hospital. One used, if you choose to, the tubing can be washed and placed in the dryer. It will then return to some of its original shape.
