Here are some more helpful tips for putting on specific garments:
Shirts/Blouses/Cardigans
Draw the sleeve onto your affected arm first, then pull the garment up onto your shoulder, having the bulk of the sleeve pulled up past your elbow.
Insert your other arm into its sleeve.
To remove the garment, slip it off your affected shoulder first, then off your other shoulder, and work the sleeve off your other arm. Then slide the garment off your affected arm.
Heavy Coats
Drape the coat over the back of an upright chair so that the armholes face forward.
Lower your affected arm into the armhole and pull the coat well up over that shoulder.
Sit down on the chair and ease your other arm in at the same time.
Jumpers
Place the garment front down with the neck opening facing away from your body.
Pick up the garment at the hem using your unaffected hand while supporting your affected arm on a table or chair arm.
Place your affected arm in the sleeve, pull it on and adjust it.
Gather the body of the garment up to the neck and pull it over your head.
Place your unaffected arm in the sleeve.
Trousers
Sit on the edge of the bed and cross your affected leg over your unaffected one.
Pull the trouser leg onto your affected leg and proceed in the same manner for the other leg.
Lie down and pull up the trousers over your hips while rolling from side to side or arching your back and lifting your bottom off the bed.
Alternatively, stand up and lean with your affected side against a supportive object, then pull up the trousers over your hips and fasten the waistband.
Socks and Knee-High Stockings
Support your affected leg on your opposite knee and place the sock onto your lap.
Gather it up as far as possible with your thumb inside it, then place it on your foot and bring it up your leg.
