What are the steps to put on a compression stocking?

To put on a compression stocking effectively, follow these simple steps:

1. **Preparation**: Sit down and gather your stocking, preferably one that fits comfortably. Ensure that your legs are clean and dry.

2. **Roll Down**: Start by rolling the stocking inside out to about the heel area, creating a cup shape.

3. **Positioning**: Place your toes in first, ensuring the heel is aligned correctly.

4. **Pull Up**: Gradually pull the stocking up your leg, avoiding twisting. Make sure it’s smooth and free of wrinkles.

5. **Adjust**: Once it’s up, adjust the top to ensure it sits comfortably, not too tight.
