Compression Socks

[jiml]

Recently, I have been giving a the diagnosis of Vasculitis and my dermatologist wants me to try compression socks. So far they absolutely suck. How is someone with bad hands suppose to put these on? Any bright ideas? Also, I have a sausage toe on the right foot. These sucks are absolute murder on both the toe and the back of my ankle. I am tempted to take some NSAIDs just to relieve the pain the socks have given me. Any suggestions.

Ooooh is that the treatment the doctor gave..... Would it be possible to get an elasticated bandage and wind that on rather than fight with compression socks .... Just an idea
