Review on Truform Medium Beige Thigh High Compression Stockings - Open Toe, 20-30 mmHg for Men and Women by Mensur Long

My doctor advised me to wear a compression stocking after a leg injury damaged the veins in my lower leg. He thought it would be especially helpful if I started running again. My first stockings were closed toe stockings below the knee, but I don't think they looked very "cool" with running shorts. So I bought these hold ups thinking they would look more fashionable. When running, the upper part slid down and bunched around the knee. I had similar problems when not running and wearing long pants. In fact, it was a little worse: T-shirts sometimes pulled below the knee because they rub against pants during daily activities. behind the knee. I only use them for running now. They hold up fairly well when tights are worn over them, but garters are a must with shorts or trousers. They will probably suit a person who is bedridden or tied to a chair, but I would advise the active person to stick with the below-the-knee option. I was concerned that the elastic that wraps around the leg might cause blisters or other irritation on long runs. distances. That has not been confirmed for me. Since I have long legs (men's size 43), the band was on the forefoot and could hardly be felt.
