Choosing the correct stockinet size is the most important factor in determining the effectiveness and comfort of EdemaWear.
The following steps should help you choose the correct stockinet size for the limb advised by your healthcare professional.
- Find the limb circumference. Measure around the thickest part of the applicable limb with a tape measure.
- Choose the size, from the table below, that corresponds to the maximum limb circumference. This can be more than or equal to the limb you have just measured.
- The size small package contains 2 stockinets while all other sizes are individually packaged.
