Warnings: Compression bandaging of a leg which already has a partially blocked blood supply could stop blood flow into the leg, lead to death of skin, muscle, and possible leg amputation. Remove the bandaging system promptly if there is foot pain, or the toes are cool or numb. If the lower leg is extremely thin or bony, the pressure under the bandage may cause bruising and harm an unprotected or unpadded leg. Failure to detect significantly reduced arterial flow can result in pressure necrosis, amputation, or even death.
