Review on Starmace Compression Medical Swelling 5X Large by Shane Yay

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor compression in the shin/calf area.

I bought 4 pairs of these two different sizes. They appear fine at first glance, but once they were put on I could definitely tell that they weren't as good at "seeming" as the compressive strength claimed. They definitely don't compare to my old ones. They tend to bunch up and dig into my ankles. If I follow and pull back I get good results below the ankle. But since I also have neuropathy, I don't have very good sensitivity in that area, so I shouldn't wear them. Compression is too weak in the lower leg area. From ankle to knee I got almost no usable compression. 4 pairs in two different sizes and they fit, just poor quality. I can't choose a smaller size because they didn't fit me. I've been wearing these stockings for several years and the doctors have checked the application several times, so I'm not doing anything wrong. .Even most of my stockings are 20/30mmHg. Art. gives me better results because the compression is calculated correctly. I don't think they're worth the hassle, price, or compression.

Pros
  • Improves circulation in the legs and improves blood circulation. Reduces leg pain and provides faster leg recovery.
Cons
  • none
