I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. You should wear your compression stockings during the day and take them off before going to bed. Put them on again first thing in the morning. You should be given at least 2 stockings, or 2 pairs if you're wearing them on both legs. This means you can wear 1 stocking (or pair) while the other is being washed and dried. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
