BENEFITS

• Support for Wound Healing: Adjunctive therapy for venous ulcers and wound management by reducing edema and improving local circulation.

USAGE GUIDELINES

• Consult First: Always confirm with your healthcare provider that 30-40 mmHg is appropriate for your condition.
• When to Put On: Put stockings on in the morning while lying down or after elevating legs, before swelling begins.
• Donning Technique: Turn the stocking inside out to the heel, insert the foot, position the heel, then gently unroll or pull up the stocking evenly avoid overstretching the fabric.
• Use of Aids: Consider using donning gloves or a stocking donner for easier application, especially if mobility is limited or hands are weak.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

• Daily Care: Rinse gently after heavy use to remove sweat and oils. This helps preserve elasticity.
• Washing: Hand washes in lukewarm/cold water with a mild, non-biological detergent. If machine-washing is necessary, place stockings in a mesh laundry bag and use a gentle cycle with cold water.
• Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water, and do not wring. Lay flat or hang to air dry away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Never tumble dry or iron.
• Storage: Store flat or rolled (not folded tightly) in a cool, dry place. Keep away from oils, lotions, and sharp objects that can snag the fabric.
