This is the problem with these things, they will compress everything, and what's left over goes either north or south...!

I was told to only leave them off for 20 minutes at a time. I was given 4 pairs from the hospital.
I did get mine checked by a nurse because I thought mine were too tight. I was left with dents is well but the nurse said the were ok.
If you are worried, pop into your GP and ask a nurse to check.
Good luck. c

Yes, they are tight, and I have that dent too.
It will wear off when you finally get to take them off.
You have to try to avoid 'bunching up ' and spread them evenly up to just under the knee.
Regards
Graham
