Compression stockings are specialized attire engineered to bolster blood circulation in the legs and ankles, effectively mitigating symptoms associated with venous disorders such as varicose veins, spider veins, and edema (swelling). They are often prescribed for individuals engaged in prolonged sitting or standing activities, including travelers, office workers, and athletes, to thwart the accumulation of blood in the lower limbs and diminish the likelihood of blood clots.
The primary categories of compression stockings include compression socks and compression hosiery. Compression socks are tailored garments that administer graduated pressure to enhance blood flow in the legs, commonly utilized to forestall swelling and minimize the risk of blood clots. These products are available through various distribution channels, encompassing both offline and online avenues, catering to the needs of adult men, adult women, as well as aged men and women.
