 How to use a figure of eight bandage:

1: Wearing the figure of eight bandage should be done with the shoulder pressing back in an arch position, almost like a stretch. 2: Adjustment of the splint through the day is crucial, as a figure of eight worn improperly can allow the fracture to heal improperly. 3: Check circulation, making sure that the bace is not too tight. That would constrict the brachial artery causing symptomatic numbness, cold fingers and pain. Adjust brace if any symptoms arise. 4: Check nerve impingement. With the figure of eight brace on too tight or improperly, impingement areas can arise causing numbness. Adjust brace to relieve any symptoms that arise, keeping in mind to keep brace snug, not too tight, in the proper position. 5: If any concerns or problems, please contact your fracture clinic or nearest emergency.
