Different wrap/bandage uses?
I am just wondering what the different uses are for all the different types of horse wraps and bandages there are out there. I know the obvious ones like polo wraps and vet wrap, but some I can't figure out the difference between. Like standing bandages, track bandages, pillow wraps, stall bandages, quilted leg wraps, cotton rolls, etc. Like what are the uses for each one and when would you use it? For stall bandages/wraps do they wear them 24/7 while they are in a stall? Or are pillow wraps just for injuries? Just out of curiousity. Some may come in handy! My show jumper has a stall with a run, and every morning his legs are all stopped up and puffy. Will wrapping them overnight help? Which wraps would I use? So many questions! Thanksss!!
Ketral has it correct in what she says about use of bandages but, the pictures she has posted are excellent in showing how NOT to bandage!
The first showing the use of vet wrap would do more harm than good. There should be a good layer of cotton wool/gamgee or a padding under the vet wrap and, if you have to bandage above the joint than a bandage is needed on the lower leg to help prevent it slipping. By applying vet wrap direct there is a danger that you can damage the circulation especially on an area where the bandage is likely to slip - where the higher part is fatter than the lower.
The second showing stable wraps is incorrect as the bandages should come down over the pasterns.
The third as exercise bandages are slightly better but, depending on what work you are doing should leave the joint free. Dressage riders do cover the pastern and in the picture the covering over the joint needs to be thicker.
There is a lot of damage done with incorrectly fitted bandages. Tension is vital, to tight and circulation damage is done, to loose and they slip and do no good. Unless you know what you are doing then you need to always have a covering under the wrap. Any joint bandaged over should be done in a figure of eight.
