Compression Stockings

February 14, 2023

Compression socks and stockings can help increase blood flow to the heart and reduce swelling and pain around sore feet and ankles. These socks provide compression therapy by applying gentle pressure on the leg, increasing blood flow and pressure. There are various compression socks, including graduated, anti-embolism, and non-medical support hosiery. You can also find them in different sizes. It is crucial to get fitted correctly for compression socks for effective therapy. Nonetheless, not all supplies are reliable, so a thorough review is essential before ordering. Here’s a brief overview of compression socks and the importance of getting the right fit for your needs.

How Compression Socks Work

Standard prescribed compression socks work by applying gentle pressure to your legs and ankles. Also, consider the different levels of compression. The compression levels are the amount of pressure applied to your legs and measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). So the more significant number indicates higher compression and is most likely prescribed by doctors for specific medical conditions.

The therapy also increases blood flow to the heart and prevents the blood from flowing laterally into your superficial veins or downwards to the foot. Since compression socks come into contact with your skin, you should monitor any covered areas’ changes.

Top Benefits of Getting the Right Fit

If you need compression socks for medical therapy, you should find the right size. The benefits of compression socks and stockings range from better circulation to vein support, reducing leg inflammation, preventing deep vein thrombosis, and reversing venous hypertension, among others. However, you can only count on these benefits if you have correctly functioning compression socks, which requires finding the right fit for your needs. We have various materials, colors, and designs at Copper Star Home Medical to best suit all preferences and needs. Here’s why you need to get fitted properly:

  • For Effective Solutions

Not all compression socks are perfect for your case. Unfortunately, most people will quickly buy compression socks without worrying about finding the right fit. If the wrong fit is purchased, it might not help your condition. A proper fit ensures you get the required therapy from your compression socks. We also carry hand and arm compression sleeves!

  • Prevent Further Injury

Using the wrong compression socks won’t heal the targeted condition. If anything, they worsen the situation, which remains unresolved. It is crucial to find proper fits, especially if you have a severe condition for which prescribed socks are needed, such as edema and DVT. Only the right fit will provide the required therapy.

  • Proper Use and Maintenance

Compression socks come with instructions for how to use, wear, and remove them. Following the doctor’s instructions on when and how long you should wear compression socks is essential. Getting the best from your socks will be challenging if you choose the wrong fit. 

Professional Compression Socks and Fitting

Are you looking for trusted compression socks suppliers and fitters? If your doctor prescribes compression socks for specific conditions, or you need a pair to soothe sore feet after a long day, it is crucial to find the best options. We aim to help our clients find the best compression products at Copper Star Home Medical. Including choosing the right size and type. We also stock premium quality compression socks and other medical supplies and have reopened our COVID-19 safe fitting rooms to help customers find the right fit for their compression socks and stockings without fearing the risk of infection.
