First Aid Sling

 An Arm Sling is a fundamental supportive device used to elevate, immobilize, and protect the injured upper limb. By cradling the forearm and transferring weight to the neck and opposite shoulder, it provides stability for fractures, dislocations, and post-operative conditions of the shoulder, arm, elbow, or wrist. Proper application is critical: the elbow must be bent at 90 degrees, the hand elevated above the elbow, and the wrist supported to prevent swelling and nerve complications. Available in standard, shoulder immobilizer, and collar-and-cuff designs, it is an essential tool for pain management, healing facilitation, and patient comfort across all clinical settings.
