A friend of mine bought it for me.
On the backside of the box (second product photo), you can find the size chart.
Your question is greatly appreciated! Thanks for contacting me! You can find the measurement instructions here The best time to measure and fit is first thing in the morning when swelling or edema is at its lowest. Make sure you take firm measurements without putting pressure on Note the measurements at each point using a level and a measuring tape placed at a level. You should measure around the ankle bone just above the smallest part of the ankle. Measuring the calf at its fullest part is the best criterion. The middle part of the thigh should be measured. The height of the thigh should be measured from the floor to the middle.

As I mentioned in my last entry, I did not like the compression stockings my doctor prescribed (and told me to wear all the time). I'm really happy with my new stockings. They're so much better than my old ones. Their softness and comfort make them a pleasure to wear. As you can see, I am 5'10". The circumference of your ankles should be A calf circumference of 8 1/4 inches - It is 15" around the hips and - it is 18" around the thighs It fits perfectly with a 19" height and size Medium.
Throughout the leg, these fit nicely. At the thighs, they fit just fine, but when I got to my knees, they kept slipping down. I had to carry them back up every time I walked after my surgery, so I tried to pull them back up as much as I could. I had already noticed that the elastic at the top was stretched after washing them. (See photo).
I'd buy it In the aftermath of cosmetic vein treatment on my legs, I had to wear these compression shorts. I ordered my compression thigh highs from their size chart after measuring my leg with a tape measure. I found that these compression thigh highs are a reasonable price for a product of great quality. I highly recommend them.
Compared to expensive materials the hospitals reimburse inflated rates for, the cheaper ones are more durable. After about a week, the compression above the knee started to disappear. It would not be possible to offer protection by standing up on the thighs. It gives your arms a work out, all the time pulling them up. The ones that arrived much later than expected didn't work, so we have to buy some from a local medical supply store. I am not certain knee highs will prevent complications above the knee after surgery, although they might be beneficial for support.
He developed a blood clot post-operatively, which prompted him to have a blood clot.
Less than 2 minutes after walking the left side of the stocking began falling down to the knee, and 20 minutes later, the right side began to fall down as well. The elastic is clearly sewn unevenly, leaving too much slack in the part you need tension the most. As a result of pulling them up, the same result was obtained. According to the sizing chart, this should be the best fit for my leg, but the elastic warped after only five minutes of use, so the size may not be accurate. There is no holding power to the elastic, and it is too thin. Those are the jobst ones, which are much thicker and look much more premium, so I finally purchased them. Instead, you should use those. The regular premium stocking leotards will perform better if you don't have a lot of money. Not happy.
This is why I ordered the WHITE, since I was replacing what the hospital fitted me with. I am 48 hours out from my surgery. Since I have no choice but to use the ones sent, I will have to buy a new pair of white ones. My inner thighs have painful red stripes after surgery after it was mentioned at the hospital that I was "between sizing". The nurse's choice of size left painful red stripes on my inner thighs after cutting and binding. I had no discomfort from surgery at all, but I had too much pain In anticipation of my being able to walk without having to lay on my back, I chose to purchase these white ones. I went up a size from the white ones provided to me. (I am not bed ridden). I had a nurse friend with 40 years of experience looking at them (who regularly puts compression stockings on C-section patients) if they looked good in photos Intended to be used in surgical sections). The size of the hospital is too small, she agreed. do not want to deal with that creepy "non-" In compliance with I had a post-operative visit with a doctor about the patient It would be better to go That's why. The white is now on the market. I have to try to buy it again.
I used them for weeks after The ones I received at the hospital did not last as long as mine did. As a result, I took one start off, since the elastic band at the top should have held it up on the thigh is failing, and the rolls rolled down the thigh toward the knee after just about an hour. I did have a slight inconvenience, but the stockings were totally functional and provided all the compression and support I needed at the knee, calf, and foot.
