If you suffer from leg swelling or aching, lymphedema, or edema, you may be in need of compression stockings.
Compression stockings are a medical gradient elastic garment that wraps around the leg. It is designed to aid those suffering from venous returns by decreasing pressure and preventing further venous stasis and deterioration.
Additionally, compression stockings help with effectively relieving aching and heavy legs.
