Proper Administration

• Morning Application: It is best to put them on first thing in the morning before swelling begins.
• The "Heel" Technique: Turn the sock inside out down to the heel, slip your foot in, then gradually pull the rest of the sock up your calf.
• Placement: The top band should rest about two finger-widths below the bend of the knee.

Contraindications of Miracle Socks

• Severe Arterial Disease: Individuals with advanced peripheral artery disease (PAD) should avoid compression socks.
• Skin Infections: Do not wear over active skin infections, weeping dermatitis, or open leg ulcers without medical dressings.
• Congestive Heart Failure (CHF): Consult a physician first, as shifting fluid back to the heart can be dangerous for some CHF patients.
• Sensory Loss: People with severe peripheral neuropathy (loss of feeling) should use caution and regular skin checks.

Side Effects of Miracle Socks

• Common: Mild skin itching or temporary pressure marks upon removal.
• Rare: Numbness, tingling, or skin irritation if the socks are too tight or bunched up.
• Action: If your toes turn blue, feel cold, or go numb, remove the socks immediately and check your sizing.

Precautions and Warnings

• Proper Sizing: Ensure you have the correct size; socks that are too tight can restrict circulation rather than help it.
• No Bunching: Always smooth out wrinkles; bunched fabric can create a "tourniquet" effect.
• Night Use: Generally, mild compression socks like these are intended for daytime use while mobile; consult a doctor before wearing them to sleep.
