Review on 🧦 Compression Calf Sleeve Knee High Leg Socks for Women with Varicose Veins - 30-40 mmHg Support by Dexter Rasberry

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect, just as I had hoped.

hoping to reduce the severe ankle swelling that occurs when I attend meetings or sit for more than 30 minutes, be it in a car, airplane or office chair. The compression stockings worked great. My ankles didn't swell at all, even after sitting on a plane for six hours. I measured my calf and ankle and then chose a size where those measurements fall in the middle of the suggested size chart. They are to be tightened. I'm not overly flexible, but someone who has difficulty pulling or bending will likely have a hard time putting them on properly. The fabric tends to gather on the leg before the ankle, but be sure to pull it taut or you'll pinch the skin and numb those areas. Because the fabric is inflexible, you don't have the luxury of stretching them far to pull them taut like you would if you were wearing regular knee or thigh high stockings. The fabric is soft but doesn't stretch like spandex or lycra. There is little recoil, so buying the right size is important. If you are choosing between two sizes, be sure to choose the larger one. If you wear long skirts or dresses, no one can tell what it is. They fit smoothly around the calves, like tights. They're also thin enough that you can wear heels or sandals with them, or wear socks over them if you're wearing tennis shoes or sneakers. something to wear on a long plane or car trip.

Pros

Cons
  • operating speed
