I had swollen legs which were very painful, so I bought a pair of compression tights. I had great difficulty in putting them on as i have an arthritic hip. I decided to buy the Dorking Tights Donner and i am so glad i did i would give it 10 out of 10 - it made the job of putting on compression hosiery so much easier and i would happily recommend it to anyone. I cannot express how easy the job is with one of these. The Dorking Tights aid was a good price, delivered quickly and well packaged. I would use essentialaids again.
