How to Apply Your Medical Socks

Helpful Hints:
- Skin should be dry
- Applying a thin layer of cornstarch or
powder will help the stockings or sleeve slide over your skin
- Remove your rings and jewelry that can
damage your garment
-
Purchase the
Professional Fitter's Gloves to prevent fingernails from damaging the fabric
- they also help provide grip to
distribute the fabric more easily
- Avoid rolling, gathering or bunching the
fabric, as this will only increase the pressure – like creating a super
rubber band.
- Apply moisturizer to your legs or arm in
the evening rather than just before putting on your stocking or sleeve
