The benefits of Compression Therapy are plentiful and the reasons vary from person to person why you may choose to wear compression socks or stockings. As shown in the above chart, some of the most prevalent symptoms or conditions that benefit from compression therapy are:
It can even be used as a preventive measure to maintain healthy legs for someone who spends extensive amounts of time on their feet. Quite simply, when we stand still for long periods, the forces of gravity increase the pressure within the veins of the legs where the greater effects happen at the ankle and decreases gradually up the leg and body. This pressure depends on the vertical distance of the column of blood from the heart to the foot. That's why gradient compression stockings are designed with the pressure greatest at the ankle and diminishing as it moves up the leg in order to counter the effects of the higher venous pressures.
Compression therapy products are put on in the morning upon arising, which is typically before any significant swelling would occur, and then removed at night. Throughout the day the compression prevents blood from pooling in leg veins, which in turn helps your overall circulation and lessens or eliminates any leg swelling you may have.
When shopping for compression socks or stockings, it is best to measure earlier in the day before swelling builds in the legs. Measurements taken later in the day after swelling occurs may cause you to choose an item that is too large and then not effective.
There are many types of compression socks and stockings available without a prescription and they do offer wide-ranging benefits. Before wearing a compression therapy of 20 mmHg (Firm Compression) and above, it is generally recommended to consult your health care provider to find out if graduated compression stockings are right for you. If the answer is yes, they can tell you what pressure grade you should buy for maximum benefit and relief.

Unfortunately these are not made in the petite length.
Their is no difference, the difference will be only in the level of compression indicated by your doctor. All items are graduated compression. Stronger level at the ankle and decrease while going up the leg. For example 20-30mmHg, this will be 30 at ...
You do not have to enter your shoe size when it comes to this item. You would have to measure the circumference of your ankle & calf. Also the length from the heal to the crease of the knee and follow the size chart in order to determine what size you...
They do not cause thigh bulge at the top although the compression starts at the ankle and reduces as you go up the leg. If you measure the ankle, calf, thigh and length from heal to thigh you should have a great fit.

We are sorry to inform that the Opaque Sheer A2014 are a discontinued product. As for the Opqaue a203 in my opinion they look like a medical style in the beige; I dont consider them to be fashionable to wear with a dress. However, you could probably get away with wearing the black colored ones.

Long Length of XL stockings for long legs. Great Price.
Firm support, quality made
Takes getting used to the raised dots but after that not bad at all.
Gradient compression
size chart did not work stockings to small
Comfortable and soft and don't leave indentions on the ankle. Toes are roomy.
Silicone beads sometimes can irritate. Should make more colors like a darker beige or brown.
