Apparel Attire
Compression knee high socks are specifically made to reduce swelling and promote blood circulation between your heart and your legs. By applying pressure to your calves, these socks provide comfortability and health benefits in a versatile and customizable way. Stockings that rise to just below the knee help limit lower leg swelling due to fluid buildup. They may also help prevent venous ulcers and can prevent the development of blood clots in the leg — especially if used after surgery or when you may be inactive for a while.
Material
Opaque: The term “opaque stockings” is used to describe hosiery that tends to be non-translucent Opaque stockings are usually about 50 deniers or higher in weight, thus achieving its thick appearance. Opaque stockings can be made from a variety of materials, including nylon. Opaque stockings combine outstanding functionality with an especially soft and pleasant feel. Their refined opacity discreetly hides blemishes while effective moisture management and ease of donning support everyday comfort. As you might imagine, a sheer is going to be a bit more breathable than an opaque stocking. An opaque is wonderful for cooler months when you want the extra warmth. An opaque stocking will effectively hide very pronounced varicosities or unwanted sunspots, while the sheer will cover your legs, but still mildly expose your skin.
Fiber Content: 78% Nylon, 22% Lycra Spandex
Available in Plus Size
At Discount Surgical Stockings, we stand behind size-inclusivity for all categories and we proudly offer a variety of options for every style, shape, and budget. Our plus-size compression garments are designed to provide the medical compression support for extra wide sizes. These strong, surgical weight compression socks give you the graduated compression doctors recommend, especially for lymphedema patients.
Compression: 20-30 mmhg (Firm Support)
If wearing a lower compression does not seem to be minimizing the swelling in your legs enough, higher-grade (or medical grade) compression may be more effective. Usually, people who suffer from swelling can benefit from 20-30 mmHg socks. These can help them alleviate symptoms of moderate to severe edema and varicose veins. Compression stockings 20-30 mmHg may also help after surgery on the advice of a doctor and reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) from sitting for too long. They are specially formulated to relieve pain in the legs and calves, venous ulcers, edema, and other diseases of the lower extremities. The 20-30 mmHg compression stockings from Discount Surgical Stockings have medical-grade standards and beautiful designs that are designed to fit any aesthetic. These socks can help reduce swelling, relieve leg pain, and prevent venous ulcers. These socks are recommended for people with mild to moderate conditions. The range of 20-30 mmHg compression socks features many styles that can match any wardrobe or personal style.

QA
does the seam on the closed toe run across the top of the toes or at the ends? Asked by jean
These are almost seamless -- there is a slight seem on the top of the toes
I purchased a medium, open-toed version of these a long time ago for a vein treatment and wore them only for a short time. They still fit well, however I've been advised to get a new pair to make sure the compression is the same. I have a series of treatments coming up and would like to know if the medium in this new version will fit the same as the old version. My measurements are consistent with a medium, but sometimes that doesn't always work out with a new manufacturer. Asked by Peggy
If your measurements are running in the size Medium on this model then that will be your size. This stockings run true to size.

Great Price

opaque 20-30 socks and hose 3 people found this helpfulFor years I have been buying the thick, spare room in the toe box, knee highs. But the last few orders going back to 2019, 2020 have been anything but. I thought I was ordering the right ones and I actually was. However I have received several pairs where the foot was small and the toe area so tight I could not wear them. Are you not selling the thicker, roomy toes opaque knee highs anymore. Also when I ordered them I wish you had let me know you don't have those anymore if that is the case. Very disappointed.
None
small foot and tight toe box. No room for toes to relax.
-
These hose were very nice but very tight and I just couldn't wear them for very long. 0 people found this helpfulI have very big calves and legs and have constant pain from venous vein disease and I was hoping these would help with my pain but it seems nothing will.
Very well made and reasonably priced.
Just too tight for me.
-
Compression Stockings 2 people found this helpfulI ordered what I thought were the same Jobst compression stocking that I always order. What I received were some substitute brand for the model and size I ordered. I will not use Discount Surgical in the future. I will order directly from Josbt.
None, just a dissatisfied customer.
I will pay the cost of buying directly from Jobst. That way I will get the stockings I actually ordered.
