The doctor found that it was the tight jeans she was wearing that made her fall down. So the doctors were forced to cut the jeans off her calves because they had become so swollen.

The woman lost circulation in her lower legs and couldn't move her ankles or toes properly. If she hadn't been able to come to the hospital, the compression could have gone on longer and caused residual nerve damage, according to the study.
