1. Slide the forearm of your affected side into the sling.
2. Bring the supporting straps over your shoulders, crossing them in the back. Bring the loose ends of the straps up under the sling and fasten the Velcro to the from of the sling.
3. Starting on the affected side, firmly attach the swathe onto the sling using the Velcro. Wrap the swathe securely over your affected arm, around your back (covering the straps) and under your unaffected arm. Fasten the loose end to the sling. If the swathe is long enough you may overlap the free end over the fastened end.
