1. An aid adapted for pulling elastic stockings on and off a leg, the aid comprising a flexible, tube-like peripheral body of a smooth material providing a substantially smooth outer surface of the aid, the peripheral body is provided with a lining of a smooth material, said lining being attached to the peripheral body at the position of a peripheral body's insertion end for a foot, such that said lining can, apart from said attachment, be moved freely relative to the peripheral body from an inward folded position, in which the lining is situated within the peripheral body and in which position a foot can be inserted in said body, to an outward folded position in which the lining is outside the peripheral body, wherein said peripheral body further comprises tensioning means configured to secure the aid at least temporarily around a leg with the lining in the inward folded position, and wherein the smoothness of the smooth material is such that when removing the aid from a leg provided with an elastic stocking, a coefficient of friction between the peripheral body and the lining is lower than a coefficient of friction between the elastic stocking and the lining, causing the peripheral body to slide over the lining when the peripheral body and the lining are held against each other under a pressure. |
