Size selection and use

Correct sizing and selecting the correct version for the left or right leg are important for achieving the intended compression and proper fit. Select the size according to the manufacturer’s exact sizing chart.

Put the stocking on in the morning before getting out of bed. If it is removed during the day, rest the leg for approximately 10–15 minutes before putting it on again. A small amount of talcum powder or baby powder may be used to make application easier.

Open wounds must be covered with a sterile dressing before the stocking is applied. Use the product only when recommended and according to the instructions of a healthcare professional.
