Colflex Adhesive Wrap
This wrap was originally designed for racing horses. It’s usually found still on the track wrapped around the horse’s ankles. It’s also used for holding on bandages and supporting the foot and ankle similar to an Ace Wrap or a compression wrap. It sticks to itself so it doesn’t require tape or clips and is reusable. The color purple works better than the other colors as far as sticking. That’s why we only offer the color purple because it is more effective in its intended use.

Cotton Gauze
This roll of cotton gauze is useful for bandaging the foot and ankle area as there is no latex in these products. It comes in 2” and 3” wide rolls. Gauze is mainly used for bandaging and dressing ulcers or sores on the foot. This is the best gauze that we have found because it conforms to the foot and gives and stretches and this is important in dressing wounds on the foot as there are many different angles and contours to the foot and ankle area.
Lambs Wool
Lambs wool, believe it or not, is actually wool from sheep and it works quite well placed in between the toes to dry out the toes. If your feet sweat or if you have athletes foot in between your toes or any other type of infection this can be placed in between the toes to help alleviate infection, wetness, or irritation.

This tape is excellent to use for doing surgical or wound dressing changes. This tape can be used in conjunction with the 2x2 gauze and the 2” or 3” gauze roll.
