This Normal Compression Long Stocking In White, Medium Size made by Medilast has a soft and resistant fabric, as it is created to help improve the rest of the legs. It has a silicone band to adjust at the thigh, as it has to go all the way up so that it can be worn with a skirt or trousers.
These stockings help to prevent the accumulation of blood in the feet, as well as to reduce the fluid retention that causes swelling in the legs. This is thanks to their 22 to 29 mmHg compression, which is recommended for pregnant women and people who stay in the same position for many hours. Such is the case of those who travel for repeated days or work always standing or sitting.
It is a therapeutic stocking that exerts a downward pressure as it moves up the leg. In this way, it acts more strongly on the ankle in order to press on the veins to push the blood upwards.
Farmaciasdirect recommends the use of these compression stockings for people who suffer from swollen legs and wish to optimise their rest throughout the day.
Those suffering from venous insufficiency and varicose veins can enjoy the comfort of maintaining adequate venous return.
To put these stockings on, it is necessary to remove the rings from the hand and make sure that the nails are well filed. It is also preferable to wear them in the morning, as at this time of day the legs are not yet swollen.
It is recommended to turn the stocking over until it reaches the heel and then pull it a little more and put it on, making sure that the heel is facing downwards. Bring the stocking up to the instep and push down so that the heel fits comfortably and properly, then push the stocking up to the ankle. Grasp the entire sock so that you can pull it wider and loosen it as you go up your leg until you reach the top, where you can stretch it with the palm of your hands.
This will prevent wrinkles or folds that can damage the skin.
People with diabetes should consult their specialist about the suitability of using these compression stockings.
