Donning Your Garment
Properly fitting Jobst compression stockings should feel snug at first. It will take a few days to adjust to the pressure.
Helpful Hints
- Skin should be dry
- Applying a thin layer of cornstarch or powder will help the stockings over your skin
- Remove your rings and jewelry that can damage your garment
- Wear rubber or vinyl gloves to prevent fingernails from damaging the fabric
- The gloves 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 in the evening rather than just before putting on your stocking
