I responded to the wraps beautifully. I went down 21 cm left leg and 6.4 in rt in 2 days total so far in 2 weeks almost 18 inches total from knees down

works but very unrealistic for a child!

It brought down the sweeling near close enough for me to get compressions stockings, but oh my the pain!

helps a little but really misshapes my leg. I don't think I'm very good at it!
