Compression stocking frames are designed to help you put on compression stockings easily and comfortably. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use one:
1. Prepare the Stocking and Frame:

2. Insert the Stocking:
- Align the stocking: Carefully position the stocking's toe area into the frame's opening.
- Secure the stocking: Use the frame's clips or fasteners to hold the stocking in place, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
3. Put on the Stocking:
- Slide your foot in: Insert your foot into the stocking through the frame's opening, ensuring your heel is properly positioned within the heel section of the stocking.
- Slide the stocking up: Gently pull the stocking up your leg, using the frame as support.
- Adjust as needed: Once the stocking is fully on, check for any wrinkles or bunching and adjust as necessary.
4. Remove the Frame:
- Carefully detach: Release the clips or fasteners holding the stocking to the frame.
- Remove the frame: Gently lift the frame away from the stocking.
5. Final Touches:
