Take them off Liz. If they are causing pain, they are not working. Is this the first time you have worn them? Were you encouraged to use them in short doses at first, building to all day over a number of days? Are the rolling down as opposed to round? Can you tell me what brand and class they are? There should be a label in the waist band.
