Compression

Compression stockings are medical grade devices designed to move blood flow. 

Support compression stockings are made available in multiple compression support levels. Most commonly compression support stockings come in mild (8-15 mmHg), Medium (15-20 mmHg), Firm (20-30 mmHg), X-Firm (30-40 mmHg) gradient compression levels.

RX 40-50 mmHg Gradient Compression Stockings are generally indicated for more Serious Venous Diseases such as Acute Leg/Ankle Swelling, Varicose Veins, Chronic Vein Insufficiency and Deep Vein Thrombosis.

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
Where exactly is the thigh high band to stop, 5-6 inches from the crotch or higher. Does this have a clear foot, toes and heel for sandals. Thanks Asked by T

The thigh high band usually goes right under your buttocks but can be lower. About 3-5 inches lower. This garment is completely sheer from the bottom to top. It is available in open toe but not with an open heal.

Has anyone else had issues with blistering and skin coming off where the silicone sticks to the thigh area when removing the stockings? I don't have this with the dot silicone, only with the lace top? Any suggestions, if others have had this issue? I really want to be able to wear the Sheer & Soft instead of the Comfort, as they are much lighter weight for warm summer wear! Asked by Lola

The reason why you might be blistering due to wearing the lace band. The silicone doesn't cause allergy but when you sweat it might cause irritation and the blistering to occur .We would suggest for you to try the silicone dot bands so your skin can ...

    I needed these hose after vein surgery. I was very pleased with them. They stay up all day without rolling and feel very comfortable. I even had to sleep in them. I had no problem getting them on. I have worn them every other day for a month and so far no runs or pick. I would recommend them, especially for comfort. Even wear them under stretch pants and no line.

    Wonderful Stockings! 2 people found this helpful
    Overall

    Fit

    I love the Medi brand of support stockings because they wear well, and the thigh-high band doesn't have a tendency to roll down. I recently tried the Sheer & Soft version, which is lighter-weight for hot summer months, and LOVE them! I do find that it is easier to put a finger through, and they rip/run easier than the heavier version I had been wearing, but if you're careful they last well and wear long. Color is more natural for a truer 'leg' look. I will continue to purchase these great nylons for continued support!
