do sb up

[GUEST2008]

Hi

Does the phrase "do somebody up" could mean, for example, to bandage?

A little girl was hurt and her granny told her friend to:

Run for your mum and tell her to bring her first-aid things.” So I did, and my mum come and did Ethel up as good as any doctor.​

It's understandable, but not usual.

More common is fixed Ethel up or bandaged her up as well as any doctor.
