INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
To wear Albert – André socks, proceed as with normal socks but without rolling them on.
First turn the sock upside down, then position the heel and pull the sock with your hands, stretching it towards the ankle, calf, and depending on the length, towards the thigh and groin area.
If the sock will be distributed correctly without wrinkles and creases, compression will be optimal.
To help you grab your socks more easily while putting it on (for compression stockings classes 2 and 3), we recommend that you wear the latex gloves that are enclosed in the package.
For the open toes models, first apply the silk sleeve supplied with the product to the foot, which facilitates the sliding of the compression stocking.
After wearing the sock, remove the silk sleeve.
It is advisable to put on compression stockings in the morning, as feet are less swollen.
Apply silicone lotion or talcum powder on the skin to make it easier for the socks to slide along the skin.
Contact your specialist if you feel numb toes or if the skin begins to change color while wearing compression stockings.
