A bandage is a piece of material used either to support a medical device such as a dressing or splint, or on its own to provide support to or to restrict the movement of a part of the body. When used with a dressing, the dressing is applied directly on a wound, and a bandage used to hold the dressing in place. Other bandages are used without dressings, such as elastic bandages that are used to reduce swelling or provide support to a sprained ankle. Tight bandages can be used to slow blood flow to an extremity, such as when a leg or arm is bleeding heavily.
Bandages are available in a wide range of types, from generic cloth strips to specialized shaped bandages designed for a specific limb or part of the body. Bandages can often be improvised as the situation demands, using clothing, blankets or other material. In American English, the word bandage is often used to indicate a small gauze dressing attached to an adhesive bandage.
In February 2016, an Israeli company announced that it has succeeded in harnessing new technology to produce a bandage that aims to save lives by stopping otherwise unmanageable bleeding in the field and in hospitals.
Bandages was the sixth studio album by psychedelic rock group, The Edgar Broughton Band. This was the first album to be made after the band's departure from Harvest Records. It was originally released as "NEMS NEL 6006" in 1976. The album was reissued in 2006.

It will come around but everything is now I know everything is right now And the loneliness is a lot the nothing weighs a ton I mean the nothing weighs a fucking ton That half of the bed empty like a page all the cursive claims you've yet to make All the promising lines bending like her spine oh the whiteness that your pen could write If you get these bandages off you can stand, you can walk leave these towels and gauze you'll get up, you'll get out into the sun That's where we belong we've been abed too long all our weaknesses are growing strong But the winter always ends with water on your lips the april rain comes swinging in Get these bandages off let me stand, let me walk leave these towels and gauze let me up, let me out into the sun Cause come she will Oh come she will She comes oh she comes son
