1. When and how should I wear the Ankle Support?
It is recommended to wear the Ankle Support during activities that lead to discomfort. Ankle Supports are usually worn directly on the skin. However, if it is more convenient to you, you can also wear it over thin, tight fitting clothes. The support can be worn on the left and the right ankle. For the Protective Ankle Support, you should take care to start the application of the product with a longer strap on the outer side of the ankle to achieve best possible support. For detailed application advice see the provided information on the folding box.
Please seek medical advice if in doubt about the injury. -

5. Can I wash the Ankle Support?
Yes. All Elastoplast Supports are made with machine-washable materials. Here’s how to care for your support: For products with Velcro® straps, fasten them securely at the place provided on the support. Machine wash your support in cold/cool water (~30ºC) using the gentle or delicate cycle. Wash separately using laundry detergent with no additives (do not use fabric softener or Woolite, do not use bleach). Lay your support flat and let it air dry; do not put it in the dryer. Proper washing and drying helps your knit support maintain elasticity and original fit.
