Usage Instructions:

1. Ensure you have the correct size as prescribed by your healthcare professional. Size 3 often corresponds to a specific neck circumference; refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart for precise measurements (typically around 34-40 cm according to one source).
2. Position the back piece of the collar behind your neck, ensuring it is centered and the arrow (if present) points upwards.
3. Apply the front piece of the collar, ensuring your chin rests comfortably in the designated recess. The front piece should overlap the back piece.
4. Secure the hook and loop fasteners on both sides of the collar.
5. Adjust the height of the collar by separating the two sections and repositioning them until the collar fits snugly between your collarbone and chin, providing support without restricting breathing or swallowing.
6. Tighten the straps to ensure the collar is firm enough to limit significant neck movement (you should not be able to nod or shake your head freely).
7. Follow the specific instructions provided by your healthcare professional regarding when and how long to wear the collar.
8. Keep your skin clean and dry. The pads inside the collar (if present and removable) should be cleaned according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually with mild soap and water and air-dried.
9. Avoid adjusting the height of the collar unless instructed by your healthcare provider.
