Bandaging My Own Knee

I had to learn how to bandage my own knee yesterday. I can't rely on JiHo all the time right... Well the first time, after the fall, Ji Ho (4th year friend) was the one who bandage it for me. And with the help of a heat patch, the pain was bearable yesterday and the swelling went down too. Heat and bandages managed the pain very well.

So yesterday I decided to learn how to do it on my own. This is a topic that I'll learn only later on in General Surgery class.

And as for today, I can walk comfortably with a bandage. Only squatting is still painful. But I guess it takes time to heal.

Thanks Ji Ho for all your help!! ^_^


There are 2 types of knee bandages : converging and diverging
This one is converging if I'm not mistaken..hahaha...
