Compression stockings are a vital tool for managing various medical conditions. Here’s how they can help:
Varicose Veins:
Compression stockings reduce pressure in the veins, helping to prevent and manage varicose veins. Try the JOBST® Relief Thigh High 20-30 mmHg Compression Stockings with Silicone Top Band, Closed Toe.
Lymphedema:
They help control swelling by encouraging lymph fluid to move out of the affected limb.
Diabetes:
Compression stockings can help prevent swelling and improve circulation, reducing the risk of complications.
Pregnancy:
Pregnant women often experience swelling and varicose veins. Waist-high options like the JOBST® Relief Waist High 20-30 mmHg Compression Stockings - Standard provide gentle, effective support.
Always consult your healthcare provider before starting compression therapy, especially if you have arterial disease or other serious health conditions.
