Review on Graduated Copper Compression Socks For Men & Women Circulation 8 Pairs 15-20MmHg - Best For Running Athletic Cycling by Mike Vargas

Found myself in the not so enviable position of having been diagnosed with severe deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in my left calf) and several blood clots in my lungs (pulmonary embolisms). One of the treatments my doctor recommended was to start wearing compression socks to help with circulation in my lower leg and to reduce swelling. My DVT/PE is classified as unprovoked as I am an active athlete with no underlying conditions, so I was reluctant to try these socks.mainly because they look kind of goofy when I see them on distance runners. After close to two weeks of resisting the purchase, I broke down and purchased these. Less than 1/2 an hour after trying them on I found the pain in my leg subsiding and end of day swelling reduced. This was such a great purchase. The socks are really comfortable and provide great compression support. The fit is perfect and they don't look goofy at all! These socks have me feeling so much better in such a short period of time that I will continue wearing them after I've resolved the blood clots in my legs and arms. Highly recommend!
