The Neck.—Bandages for the retention of dressingsincluding the neck alone are never used except for very slightand insignificant wounds, for which a few circular or obliqueturns are all that is necessary. For wounds of any extent in theneck the bandage must include a number of turns about the headsufficient to secure the upper border of the neck bandage. Woundsof the lower part of the neck, and particularly those of the throatin front, will also require figure-of-eight turns passing down underboth arms. Abundant dressings must be used here and thebandage must never be tight. Fixation appliances for the neck, BANDAGING 125 required occasionally for disease or injury of the spine, mustpossess a firm grasp upon the whole trunk, neck, chin and head. 3. The
