WARNINGS
• Follow the recommendations of your health care practitioner regarding
the frequency and duration of use.
• Improper placement or prolonged use of the Game Ready System
could result in tissue damage. During the course of therapy, patients
should monitor the skin surrounding the treated region or the digits of
the extremities of the treated limb for any burning, itching, increased
swelling, or pain. If any of these signs present, or any changes in skin
appearance occur (such as blisters, increased redness, discoloration, or
other noticeable skin changes), patients are advised to discontinue use
and consult a physician.

wounds, sores, rashes, infections, or stitches. The wrap may be applied
