Abstract
A surgical hip wrap comprising an elongated fabric strip that is wrapped around a hip of a user to cover and/or protect it. The fabric strip is held in place by securing one end region around the waist of the user and by securing the opposite end region around the adjacent upper thigh region of the user. These end regions are secured to the fabric strips such as by a hook and loop closure system or adhesives or the like. The non-linear opposite end regions are offset one from the other, but they extend along generally parallel lines.
