What Should You Consider When Wearing an Arm Compression Garment?

Correct positioning at the shoulder, underarm and garment edges is important for comfort when using arm compression.

How Should the Garment Fit on the Arm?

An arm compression garment should sit smoothly along the arm without pronounced folds. Edges that repeatedly roll at the top or bottom can create unwanted pressure at one point.

Check the Shoulder and Underarm

The shoulder and underarm are mobile areas, so checking the garment's position there throughout the day can be helpful.

Persistent slipping, folding or significant discomfort may call for a review of the size and style, rather than repeatedly pulling the garment back into place.
