Compression Stockings

Compression stockings may be suggested with any combination of therapies to help improve your circulation. Our vascular surgeons provide patient advice tailored to each individual's needs.  


 

Compression stockings are special elastic stockings that are designed to provide pressure to the legs and improve blood flow. They are often recommended as a first-line treatment for varicose veins, which are bulging and twisted veins that can cause pain, discomfort, and other symptoms in the legs.

Here are some advantages of wearing compression stockings for varicose veins:

  1. Improved blood flow: Compression stockings provide graduated pressure to the legs, with the greatest pressure at the ankle and gradually decreasing up the leg. This helps to improve blood flow by pushing blood back towards the heart and preventing it from pooling in the veins.
  2. Reduced symptoms: Compression stockings can help to relieve symptoms associated with varicose veins, such as pain, swelling, and fatigue. By improving blood flow and reducing swelling, compression stockings can make your legs feel more comfortable and alleviate discomfort.
  3. Non-invasive treatment: Compression stockings are a non-invasive and non-surgical treatment option for varicose veins. They are easy to wear and do not require any downtime or recovery period.


Overall, compression stockings are a safe and effective treatment option for varicose veins, with minimal side effects and a high success rate.
