Medical Compression Socks and Stockings
What are medical compression socks?
Compression socks are garments that apply various levels of pressure to the feet or legs to improve blood flow and decrease swelling. These circulation stockings help treat and prevent many medical conditions such as edema, blood clots, varicose veins, lymphedema, and deep vein thrombosis.
How are compression socks measured?
Compression socks are typically measured in terms of the amount of pressure they apply, and this pressure is usually denoted in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). The measurements help ensure that the right amount of compression is applied to the legs to support blood circulation without causing harm.
- Mild Compression: 8-15 mmHg
- Moderate Compression: 15-20 mmHg
- Firm Compression: 20-30 mmHg
- Extra Firm Compression: 30-40 mmHg
Along with the compression level, we also offer stockings in various lengths, colors and styles for both men & women.. For more information, please see our compression stocking buying guide blog.
