I want to cover with a cotton wrap a skin area with castor oil or any oil, it doesnt matter.
How to keep it in place for a long time? |

| Are you looking to cover just an area? You could apply gauze and then use medical tape to keep in place. Medical tape is available in the first aid isle. |

Oh medical tape!!!
Castor oil works on many things so it means it lets the body regrow the cappilary network in problem areas!!!
Thank you! |

Castor oil will typically seep through cloth or gauze, so you might want to put some plastic wrap (like for food) over the top of your castor pack, before you use the medical tape.
Your choice, of course. If the plastic has too many poisons in there or whatever then by all means don't use it. But I'm betting it will cut down on the mess. |

You are right,but who can trust plastic wrap? |

Again, panos, if you think it has too many poisons that are going to seep through the layers of cloth into your skin, then by all means don't use it. I almost didn't post because I knew what you were going to say, but then though, eh, why not.
Won't make that mistake again. 
Good luck. |

Thanks, panos. You're right, I do need to learn to love myself. I'll get right on it.  |

Don't worry Yubs, some of us do love you! I felt for you before I even saw the response as I too knew where it would go.
