D. GENERALIZATION
A dressing is a piece of sterile cloth that covers a wound to prevent infection
and/or stop bleeding.

Cold compress is used to reduce swelling and relieve pain, especially used for
sprains and strains. Cold packs can be used as cold compress. Hot compress
is also used to allow normal blood circulation. Cold and hot compress are
applied alternately for closed wounds or contusions.

Bandages are used to apply pressure to bleeding; for covering wounds and
burns; and providing support for immobilization for broken bones, sprains and
strains. There are three main types of bandages namely: triangular, ace and
tubular. Triangular bandage is made from cloth and can be used as cold
compress, padding, support for pressure, or support sling. Ace bandage
secures dressings in place. Tubular bandage is used to support joints or hold
dressings in place. Smaller tubular bandage is used for finger injuries.
