Are your socks crippling your toes?

So we were really happy when we arrived in the UK well of course we’re really happy because we both ended very good job here but also my boyfriend’s had stockings for his varicose veins from our home country that well they were really expensive and there wasn’t much choice so when we got to the UK we though right, let’s get settled pay our taxes and then we can go to the doctor he can show him his horrible feet, like all men have, and his varicose veins and maybe the doctor will give him some product.

So we went to the doctor and the doctor prescribed us a British Standard Class 2 stocking didn’t have a company name on it but we ask for an open toe and a closed toe and the strangest thing happened – that the closed toe was made by one particular company and the open toe was made by another company – which I guess doesn’t matter but it was a surprise. Also it doesn’t matter that they were different colours because you don’t wear the open toes and closed toes together so no problem.

I put some pictures in here so I want to tell you all about the socks. The first thing is it’s really tight is really hard to get on not because it’s not because it’s a compression stocking but because it’s so slippy and I would recommend if you going to go to the doctor’s to get one of these stockings definitely get some some gloves the because that will help because your hands will slip all over the stocking. So the first thing might my boyfriend noticed and he is 182cm and he fits in the small size maybe that’s that’s why the foot – it is way too small for him – Ii doesn’t fit properly. When he put the heel in the heal then his toes were being pulled back on themselves and he had to pull the stocking forward a little bit so that the heel went towards the the soul and the back of the stocking was nearer to the heel and he did say it was a little bit painful he felt like his toes with being crushed backwards.

He wore them between 9:15 and 4:45 on the first day and then he had to take them off . You can see the pictures of his foot that was a big crazy really that wasn’t very nice he felt like he was getting a hammer toe on his I don’t know the big toe let next to the big toe the long one next to the big toe and he felt like his nail was being forced backwards on his big toe which was incredibly uncomfortable.
