RX 40-50 mmHg Gradient Compression Stockings are generally indicated for more Serious Venous Diseases such as Acute Leg/Ankle Swelling, Varicose Veins, Chronic Vein Insufficiency and Deep Vein Thrombosis.

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:

  • Pregnancy related swelling and vein problems
  • Varicose or spider veins
  • Lymphedema or edema
  • Swelling, pain or blood clots in the lower legs, also known as DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis)
  • Poor circulation from sitting for long periods
  • Post-surgical and post-sclerotherapy treatment

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.

    Fit

    The stocking material itself felt great. The compression was accurate. The color was spot on. What sucked was the tourniquet, I mean elastic band at the top. I put on one stocking. As soon as I let go of the band, it started rolling down on itself and made the tourniquet effect even more pronounced. If the band was WIDER the stockings may have been more comfortable. I ended up returning the stockings for a refund. Discount Surgical Stocking's return policy was EXCELLENT. I returned said stockings in accordance with their instructions and promptly received a full refund. If the need arose, I would use Discount Surgical Stockings again. Compared to other websites, DSS is the BEST.

    This was my first time w/these opaque stockings, though I've been a regular Jobst support hose customer. I love the look & feel of this style, but the thigh high bands don't come up as far(more like mid-thigh) & the open toes don't stay in place, shrinking back from the base of my toes, so I have to pull the feet part up several times a day.

    Very comfortable once they are on. For people who have never worn support stockings, be patient and follow the enclosed direction for putting on and taking off. You will soon learn how to do this much easier
