What Are Compression Socks & How Can They Help Me?
Compression stockings are elastic, pull-on stockings that apply stronger compression at the ankle and less at the thigh. They’re made that way so fluid can be returned from the lower legs and feet through the lymph system into the bloodstream. Compression stockings effectively assist in circulation and keep your blood moving.
Compression socks can be beneficial to anyone. They are suitable for any age and any activity level. Whether you have a desk job, stand all day long or live a heavily active lifestyle, compression socks can help. However, they are not all built the same. There are many different considerations to account for when choosing the right compression socks such as compression strength (mild, moderate or firm), calf size, ankle circumference and more. The best way to ensure that your individual needs are met with your compression socks, a chiropodist or foot specialist can help fit you and recommend the correct selection.
