3. Pressurize around the limbs 4-5 circles, each circle covers the previous circle, the bandage winding range should go beyond the edge of the auxiliary material.
4. Finally, reduce the excess of the bandage and fix it with adhesive tape. You can also cut the end of the bandage into two strips longitudinally from the center, and then tie the knot.
