Notes & tips: Silicone is an inert substance and therefore will not cause an allergic reaction. In some cases irritation may occur but this is caused by the skins properties - mainly the products used on the skin (skin care products), heat (perspiration) and hygiene or a combination of all 3 things.
Top tips to combat any irritation are:
- Do not use emollients directly where the silicone topband is going to sit
- Change the topband position throughout the day (only a slight move is necessary) - this allows any perspiration beneath the silicone to dry
- Clean the topband with damp cloth (no soap) in order to remove any washing powder or fabric softener -the residue of these products can cause an allergic reaction
Intended purpose:
Round knitted medical stockings are used for compression of the lower extremities, mainly for the treatment of disorders of the venous systems
