Size Measurements

To ensure a proper fit for your compression stockings, follow these step-by-step instructions to measure accurately:

Step 1: Measure Ankle Circumference

  1. Find the Narrowest Part of the Ankle: Locate the smallest part just above the ankle bone.
  2. Measure: Wrap a flexible measuring tape around this area, ensuring it is snug but not tight.
  3. Record the Measurement: Note the measurement in inches or centimeters.

Step 2: Measure Calf Circumference

  1. Find the Widest Part of the Calf: Identify the largest part of the calf muscle.
  2. Measure: Wrap the tape measure around this widest point, keeping it level and snug without compressing the skin.
  3. Record the Measurement: Write down the measurement in inches or centimeters.

Step 5: Choose the Correct Size

  • Refer to the Truform size chart below. Match your ankle and calf.
  • If your measurements fall between sizes, choose the larger size for comfort.

Additional Tips:

  • Measure in the Morning: Legs are less likely to be swollen in the morning, providing more accurate measurements.
  • Measure on Bare Skin: Avoid measuring over clothing for precise results.
  • Use a Flexible Tape Measure: This ensures the most accurate and comfortable fit.

Care Instructions

Proper care of your compression stockings is essential to maintain their effectiveness and longevity. Follow these instructions to keep your stockings in top condition:

Washing Instructions:

  1. Hand Wash Recommended:
    • For best results, hand wash your compression stockings in lukewarm water using a mild detergent or soap. This helps preserve the elasticity and compression level of the fabric.
  2. Machine Wash (Gentle Cycle):
    • If you prefer machine washing, use a gentle or delicate cycle with cold water. Place the stockings in a mesh laundry bag to prevent them from stretching or snagging.
  3. Avoid Harsh Detergents:
    • Use mild, gentle detergents free of bleach, fabric softeners, and additives. Harsh chemicals can degrade the elastic fibers of the stockings.

Drying Instructions:

  1. Air Dry Only:
    • Lay your compression stockings flat on a clean towel to air dry. Do not wring them out, as this can damage the fibers. Avoid hanging them, as this can stretch the material.
  2. Avoid Direct Heat:
    • Do not use a tumble dryer, iron, or direct sunlight to dry your stockings. High heat can damage the elastic material and reduce the effectiveness of the compression.

Additional Care Tips:

  • Rotate Pairs: Consider having at least two pairs of compression stockings to rotate between, allowing each pair to rest and regain their elasticity.
  • Inspect Regularly: Check for signs of wear and tear, such as thinning fabric or reduced elasticity. Replace stockings every 3-6 months, or as recommended by your healthcare provider.
  • Avoid Oils and Lotions: Avoid applying oils, lotions, or creams to your legs before wearing compression stockings, as these substances can break down the fibers over time.

By following these care instructions, you can extend the life of your compression stockings and ensure they continue to provide the support and therapeutic benefits you need.
