Anyone else found Sea Bands just too tight?

DH bought me home some on Saturday afternoon, as i was feeling truly dreadful. They were great felt much better straight away.

Now i have quite small wrists but have been finding them uncomfortably tight. I noticed my left hand was quite sore, near a vein. This morning it is actually quite painful so i've removed them. Have been wearing them pretty much non stop since Saturday afternoon.

Yes and so are Boots own travel bands. I know they are supposed to press firmly but I agree that the band does seem over tight, and I've got wee wrists. Can only wear them for a few hours.

I've got the Boots travel bands and I'm finding them quite tight as well - I end up with red marks where the little button has been. Presumably acupressure needs a certain amount of, well, pressure, for it to work though. Grin

I think I'd rather have uncomfortable wrists than feel vomitous, and they do seem to help.
