The benefits of Compression Therapy are plentiful and the reasons vary from person to person why you may choose to wear compression socks or stockings. As shown in the above chart, some of the most prevalent symptoms or conditions that benefit from compression therapy are:

  • Pregnancy related swelling and vein problems
  • Varicose or spider veins
  • Lymphedema or edema
  • Swelling, pain or blood clots in the lower legs, also known as DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis)
  • Poor circulation from sitting for long periods
  • Post-surgical and post-sclerotherapy treatment

It can even be used as a preventive measure to maintain healthy legs for someone who spends extensive amounts of time on their feet. Quite simply, when we stand still for long periods, the forces of gravity increase the pressure within the veins of the legs where the greater effects happen at the ankle and decreases gradually up the leg and body. This pressure depends on the vertical distance of the column of blood from the heart to the foot. That's why gradient compression stockings are designed with the pressure greatest at the ankle and diminishing as it moves up the leg in order to counter the effects of the higher venous pressures.

Compression therapy products are put on in the morning upon arising, which is typically before any significant swelling would occur, and then removed at night. Throughout the day the compression prevents blood from pooling in leg veins, which in turn helps your overall circulation and lessens or eliminates any leg swelling you may have.

When shopping for compression socks or stockings, it is best to measure earlier in the day before swelling builds in the legs. Measurements taken later in the day after swelling occurs may cause you to choose an item that is too large and then not effective.

There are many types of compression socks and stockings available without a prescription and they do offer wide-ranging benefits. Before wearing a compression therapy of 20 mmHg (Firm Compression) and above, it is generally recommended to consult your health care provider to find out if graduated compression stockings are right for you. If the answer is yes, they can tell you what pressure grade you should buy for maximum benefit and relief.

QA
Does the lace top band style stay up or do they need to be worn with a garter Asked by Tammy

The lace top has a silicone grip that will keep them from rolling

What is the difference between the 'lace top band and the silicone band? I have ordered a number of these stockings and this is the first time I see a choice of bands. Is one more 'gripping' than the other. Asked by Linda

Lace top is more fashionable and will have a "lace strip" border Silicone is a "dot" border and is more unisex

Is sandstone darker than natural? Asked by Paul

yes it is .

Is sandstone darker than natural? Asked by Paul

    Have Loved and still love Discount Surgical = great place to buy support stockings with very helpful phone people! 0 people found this helpful
    Overall

    Fit

    I've loved this particular stocking from you for years. They've fit and worn well always. But I'm less than pleased with the new version of this stocking. The Topband seems much thinner and it rolls up (reminds me of my mom's 50's ones that she purposely rolled on a special ?ring?) on my thigh causing discomfort. Also they seem to pull up higher on my thigh than my former pairs =?longer? I'd love to return to the earlier version of my very favorite stocking!

    A friend referred me to Discount Surgical Stocking as she has been a happy customer for decades. I knew nothing about compression stockings. You staff member was extremely helpful. He assisted me in determining which item to purchase. They arrived on time. The fit was perfect and the stockings wear well. I highly recommend Discount Surgical Stocking to anyone who appreciates a quality product at a fair price.

    Fit

    Before surgery (knee replacement) I was concerned that the hospital's standard issue compression stockings would not work for me since I have heavier than average calves and thighs. After visiting with a customer service representative via live chat, I ordered the product she recommended -- the Mediven Comfort Thigh High 15-20. Her recommendation was right on. The stockings fit perfectly, are comfortable and provide the necessary support.
