Choose the stocking with the ankle circumference that matches your measurement. If you use the SolvaCare measuring tape, the color that corresponds to your ankle circumference indicates the color coding of the stocking. If your calf is very thick in relation to your ankle, we advise you to take one size larger.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePutting on the stocking\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStep 1:\u003cbr\u003eInsert your hand into the stocking up to the heel piece. Grab the heel piece and turn the stocking inside out to the heel piece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStep 2:\u003cbr\u003ePlace the stocking over the foot, ensuring that the dark part of the heel piece is positioned under the heel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStep 3:\u003cbr\u003eGrab the remaining part of the stocking that is still inside out between your thumb and fingers, and gently pull it up over the ankle and calf.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStep 4:\u003cbr\u003eEnsure that the stocking fits smoothly against the skin and that the band at the top of the stocking is not doubled. Make sure that the top of the stocking ends two fingers below the knee crease. This is important to ensure good circulation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRemoving the stocking:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStep 1:\u003cbr\u003eSimply grab the top of the stocking and gently but firmly pull it down over the calf, ankle, and foot. Be extra careful with wounds or sensitive skin. Be cautious with sharp nails, and do not pull hard down with just two fingers. This could cause the stocking to tear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStep 2:\u003cbr\u003eIf necessary, place your thumbs next to the Achilles tendon under the stocking to easily get it over your heel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe compression stockings from SolvaCare are most effective in supporting blood circulation when they are put on correctly. How do you check that? Pay close attention to the following instructions:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnsure that the stocking fits well and smoothly over the entire lower leg.\u003cbr\u003eEnsure that the dark-colored heel piece fits well under the heel.\u003cbr\u003eEnsure that the top edge of the stocking is not doubled.\u003cbr\u003eThe top edge of the stocking should end two fingers below the knee crease.\u003cbr\u003eThe compression stockings from SolvaCare are elastic both in width and length. People with long lower legs can pull the stocking further up. For this, make rotating movements with your hands (as if you are turning a steering wheel back and forth) while putting on the stocking, and the fabric will give.\u003cbr\u003eThis does not affect the pressure profile and the function of the stocking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWashing instructions\u003cbr\u003eThe stockings can be machine washed at a maximum of 75 ºC. The effective compression profile is guaranteed for up to 15 washes.\u003cbr\u003eMachine drying the stockings will shorten their lifespan. It is best to dry the stockings using a clothesline or drying rack.\u003cbr\u003eDo not hang the stockings over a heater or other heat source to dry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContraindications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComplaints in the legs can have many causes.
