Which Compression Garment Do I Need?
Posted by Shareef Aldubais on 2/14/2020 to
Compression socks or compression stockings are commonly used to reduce swelling and improve blood flow to the legs, but can also be used for arms or hands. Arm or hand compression garments are commonly referred to as compression sleeves. There are many reasons a person may desire or require the use of compression garments, but some of the more common reasons are:
Varicose Veins
Edema
Phlebitis
Thrombosis
Lymphedema
Pregnancy
No matter the reason, you might be wondering which compression garment is right for you.
