Description

Albert André Class 2 therapeutic stockings exert a compression of 30 to 40 mm Hg at the ankle, progressively decreasing towards the calf and thigh.

The packaging includes a silk sleeve and a pair of latex gloves to facilitate dressing.

Equipped either with an open toe area for skin breathing and freedom of movement, or with a hole for inspection, this allows the doctor to examine the foot easily.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

For applying the Albert – André stockings, proceed as with normal stockings, but without rolling them on.

First turn the tight upside down, then position the heel and pull it with your hands, stretching it towards the ankle, calf, and depending on the length, towards the thigh and groin area.

If the tight is applied 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, which facilitates the sliding of the compression stocking.

After applying the tights, remove the silk sleeve.

It is advisable to put on compression stockings in the morning, when your feet are less swollen.

Apply silicone lotion or talcum powder on the skin to facilitate sliding and easier application.

Contact your specialist if your toes feel numb, or if the skin begins to change shade while wearing the compression stockings.
