How do I care for my stump shrinker?

Written by Bryan Potok on

    It's always advantageous to have two shrinker stockings, wear one, wash one.  Most shrinker manufacturers will recommend hand washing or using a delicate cycle in cold water with mild soap such as medi care Compression Garment Detergent, inside a garment bag.  It's always good practice to wash your shinker stocking every day.  Do not dry your shrinker stocking inside the dryer, but rather allow it to air dry.
