I have varicose veins and have to wear compression stockings every day, all day except in the evening. But now I'm on my way to Portugal, and that's a 28-hour drive. The compression stockings are bothering me, and I wanted to ask if I can take them off.

Loading...I've been getting bluish fingernails more often lately since I started trying to lose weight again. What could be causing this? Today I was walking and fasting at the same time, and they quickly turned blue.
Hello, I was in the hospital two days ago because I had terrible pain on my right side. It turned out that a cyst behind my uterus had burst. I've had this happen before, but my question is, can I still have sex or is that a problem? Thanks in advance.
Since this morning I have had constant pain under my lower jaw (under my chin, on the upper neck, basically under my tongue); it is very uncomfortable and at times very painful. I can't go to the doctor until Tuesday, so here's my question: Has anyone ever had something like this and can tell me…
Hello, I wanted to ask if I can have an MRI done at the hospital without a referral (I have a very small piece of glass in my upper thigh that is really bothering me. I have been in severe pain for the past three weeks, unfortunately it can't be detected by x-ray).
Hello, my boyfriend is on vacation and is vomiting his guts out. He probably ate something bad and has been vomiting from 3 a.m. to now. I would love to help him but I'm at home. what should he do? He feels sick and dizzy and his stomach is burning… I'm so worried about him….
Hello Marco2003795,
Of course you can pull out the hull.
But you were told why you should wear the stockings. Nonactivity, sitting activity… are the biggest problem.
It’s your health and risk. Maybe a flight here would be smart;-)
Good luck!

As much as I know, you should wear these stockings just when sitting because their function is most important. If you run a lot or drive a bike, the musculature is stimulated so that you could not miss it.
Hey,
I can imagine that the compression stockings are uncomfortable at 28 hours drive.
Nevertheless, it would be advisable not to take them off. Especially in varicose veins, the risk of thrombosis is already increased anyway. In addition, there is little movement in long car driving, which additionally increases the risk of thrombosis.
Therefore, it would not be recommended to take off the compression stockings during the car ride.
I hope I could help you.

Due to the long drive, you should carry the PPS throughout.
Probably. Shall we? No.
Especially in the car with a restricted movement it is very useful to carry it.

If you sit for so long, it would be a mistake to pull these stockings off.
Some patients do not listen to the doctor and/or do not read the package leaf. Pulling out in the evening means peculiar, not going to bed with them. Sitting is, on the other hand, the “movement” where the effect of the supporting stockings is most urgently needed.
You should have asked your doctor. Car driving is a load for the legs because little movement, hardly muscle pump.
