Bandaging his back is relatively easy; Hermione has had too much practice at wrapping the soft lengths of cloth around whip wounds, and while it's uncomfortable for Malfoy, it's not terribly painful. She takes care of the five coin-sized burn marks on his abdomen at the same time, cleaning and dressing them neatly. Malfoy stays seated at the edge of the bed while she sits behind him, dabbing the whip wounds carefully with the healing cream-potion they didn't have last time, and he says with a sigh that it soothes the pain in his wounds almost immediately. It's a slow process, winding the cloth around his lean torso, but Hermione is glad for that – it gives them both a moment to steel themselves for the final part. His hand.
