Use a roller bandage for the hand. You can find this style of bandage at any drugstore. With this type of dressing, you control how the bandage lies on your wounded hand. You'll also want to base the size of the bandage on how large your hand is.

Start at the wrist. When you're wrapping a hand, you'll start at your wrist and then work your way to other areas of the hand. Keep the bandage secure prior to wrapping by going around the wrist two or three times.

Repeat the process. You'll want to go back over the wrist and then the palm until the bandage has tightened around your hand. Keep making the turn until you're able to secure the bandage with the provided clip.
