How to put on and take off compression stockings
On this page you will find recommended ways and helpful tips for putting on compression socks and stockings. We do recommend wearing donning gloves as they significantly reduce the chances of snagging your stockings on a fingernail. Donning gloves also have the added advantage of providing grip which can make it much easier to put on your compression socks and hosiery, and to smooth out the material on your legs, ensuring a proper distribution of the compression itself.
