I just had a procedure and am supposed to wear the thigh high compression socks. Medical supply store gave me knee highs. So I ordered some on Amazon and will here later today. Now I know how to put them on. Thank you 😊

I usually pull on Thigh highs in 3-4 sections instead of two, but the foot and ankle are usually the hardest hart. Sending you all the healing vibes!

Try it with a thigh high. When you’re in a 30 to 40 MG and it’s a Juzo dynamic you might find it very difficult. I would love to see a video of it doing it with the 30 to 40 mg.

@MossyMozart 8 ай бұрын

@blackowl2053 - Remember that stockings are meant to keep legs or arms from swelling, NOT to reduce swelling. The wraps and/or pumps the doctor has demonstrated in past videos are meant to REDUCE swelling so that you can then wear stockings to keep it away.

@Sherirose1 - Maybe it's just me, but I tried several gadgets that did not work for me at all. I find specifically marketed "donning gloves" to be more helpful.

The "donning gloves that compression companies sell also help a lot. ------------------------ (Don't use the cheaper plastic-coated gloves they sell in hardware stores for construction workers and woodworkers - believe me, they can leave colored marks on your expensive garments. >_< )

I have to use a sleeve and a glove for my lymphoedema I use a rubber glove like for washing dishes it works really well.

All good when you have pull vs push going for you. How about removing them? Pulling is a lot easier than pushing. And I’ve tried the tools. I bend them so far trying I’m afraid of breaking them. And with putting all my strength into it, if it broke that could mean a serious gouge into my leg!

Try that with a stocking that has significant compression, not that lightweight one. It won't work. I have tried.

Hi. I hope you can help me. Tried using compression stockings (thigh high) but after an hour or so, I started experiencing discomfort or pinch especially at the back of my knee and inner thigh near my knee. When I took it off, it has hematoma or red mark on my inner thigh. Now, I am afraid of trying it on again. 🥺

Get yourself measured correctly and return to whoever prescribed those.

Get a Sigvaris Melany frame large or another frame. The sock is fed on the frame until the heel pop up. Grab 2 handles, put foot in and pull up.
