Guidelines for Using Compression Garments
Before purchasing compression garments, it’s crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for a thorough vascular assessment. This ensures that there are no underlying medical conditions that may contraindicate the use of such garments.
Self-monitoring is essential when using compression garments. Be vigilant for signs of:
- Ischemia (reduced blood flow)
- Changes in limb sensation, such as pins and needles or numbness
- Altered skin colour
- Presence of pain
- Increased swelling
If you experience any of these symptoms, immediately remove the compression garment and seek medical advice.
