        Figure 3.25 Pressure injury from an incorrectly applied knee bandage


                                                                                 ®
             Proprietary  zip-up  elasticated  stockings,  e.g.  Pressage ,  are  available  for  securing
        hock and knee dressings in place. If one of the sizes fits your horse, these can be a great help.

        A stable bandage is usually applied below it to prevent any swelling of the lower limb and to
        ensure it does not slip down (Figure 3.26).
