Answer A “for supporting the injured parts” is not complete.
The bandages are used for covering and for supporting the wounds, as well as for stopping the bleedings. The bandage is the strip with which the dressing is fixed at the level of the wound. In the absence of it, any other clean material can be used. The dressing is a piece of gauze that is applied to a wound, in order to prevent contamination or to stop the bleeding. The dressing is made of sterile gauze, but in its absence any textile material can be used, provided that it is clean.
Simple bandages, without splints or without something rigid to support the fracture, are NOT useful in the case of a fracture.
The correct answer is: B
