Compression Sleeve

Options
i just got a circular knit compression sleeve & it seems my upper arm is too fat & bulgy , even thought I was measured for it.      
Does anyone else have as much trouble with these things as much as me  ??

    My second sleeve, made to measure in Melbourne, was the bane of my life for five days until I sensibly took it my my therapist, who had a pretty torrid conversation with the supplier. It was appallingly bad, went into holes day 2, holes were badly darned (sleeve wasn’t replaced) and there was a significant bottle neck. It was causing harm. If your skin is very soft as mine is, the measurer may measure too tight. Don’t put up with it, it was the one time during treatment when I understood how people can get depressed!! I’ve had a German one for years, effective and no problems.

    Other than my first sleeve mine have all been custom made flat knit.
    If you're having that much trouble,  go back to the therapist who fitted it and talk to her/him.

    Take care
