The Solidea® Arm Care Class 1 is a knitted sleeve that covers the arm from the wrist up to the top of the upper arm. It gives Class 1 compression on Solidea's own scale, 15-21mmHg, graded so the pressure is firmest at the wrist and eases as it goes up the arm. Moderate compression of this kind is worn through the day to help manage mild swelling in the arm.
The sleeve is Unisex and comes in sizes S, M and L, in Camel, Natur or Nero. Work it up the arm in short stages rather than pulling hard at the top edge. That keeps the knit sitting evenly and stops the finish being stretched out of shape.
It's important to get the right fit when it comes to compression garments. That's why Daylong Shop recommends that you contact a nurse, GP or pharmacist to ensure that compression hosiery is appropriate for you. If so, you will then need to be measured in order to obtain the correct size which will ensure that the garment works correctly and feels comfortable.
Compression hosiery may not be suitable for everyone. If you have diabetes, circulation problems, reduced sensation, fragile skin, heart failure or a diagnosed vascular condition, speak to a healthcare professional before using compression.
