Ted hose, or thromboembolic deterrent stockings, are typically worn for 24 hours a day while in the hospital, especially after surgery or during periods of immobility to prevent blood clots. Once patients are discharged, they may be advised to wear them during long periods of travel or while sitting for extended times, depending on individual risk factors. The duration of wear can vary based on a doctor's recommendation, but it generally ranges from a few days to several weeks post-surgery or as needed. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized guidance.
