HOT DRESSING:
Boiled water is placed in a shallow container and cooled to 37°C. Cut the dressing to the size and shape required and place in the water. When saturated, remove from the water and squeeze out excess liquid. Place over the affected area with the shiny side away from the skin. Secure with a bandage.
COLD DRESSING:
Soak the dressing in boiled water as described above, and let the dressing cool completely. Apply to the affected area. The dressing can also be chilled in the refrigerator and kept in a bag.
DRY DRESSING:
Apply to the affected area and secure with a bandage. Avoid applying the bandage too tightly. Always apply with the shiny side away from the skin.
