Features:
- Leave the sling and swathe in place as long as directed by your healthcare provider. Unless told otherwise, you should sleep with it in place.
- If you are being treated for a shoulder dislocation, you may take the sling and swathe off to bathe or dress. Don’t try to raise your arm away from your body. Could you put it back on as soon as possible?
- Your healthcare provider may recommend gentle pendulum exercises. Stand or sit with your arm vertical and close to your side. Relax your shoulder muscles and gently swing the arm forward and back, side to side, and in small circles for about 5 minutes. Do this once or twice a day. There should be only slight pain with this exercise.
- If you are being treated for a shoulder fracture, leave the sling and swathe in place until your next exam.
- The sling and swathe are adjustable. If it becomes loose, adjust the sling so your forearm is level with the ground. Your hand should be level with the elbow. Adjust the part that wraps around your body, called swathe, so your arm is held snugly against your body.
