Compression Stocking Information:
Compression or Support stockings offer graduated compression where maximum compression is achieved at the ankle and decreases as you move up the leg. This compression, when combined with the muscle pump effect of the calf, aids in circulating blood and lymph fluid through the legs.
Today, compression stockings are available in a wide range of opacities, colours, styles and sizes making them virtually indistinguishable from regular hosiery or socks.
Compression Classes
Compression stockings are constructed using elastic fibers or rubber. These fibers help compress the limb, aiding in circulation.
Compression stockings are offered in different levels of compression. The unit of measure used to classify the pressure of the stockings is mmHg. They are often sold in one of the following pressure ranges:
General Support - over-the-counter
- 10-15 mmHg
- 15-20 mmHg
With the advice or prescription of a physician or medical professional and proper sizing from a trained fitter:
- 20-30 mmHg
- 30-40 mmHg
- 40-50 mmHg
- 50+ mmHg
Compression levels used by some manufacturers for custom made, flat knitted products in the US. Also used in Europe:
- 18-21 mmHg
- 23-32 mmHg
- 34-46 mmHg
- >50 mmHg
Indications for Use
- Tired, aching legs
- Varicose veins
- Venous Insufficiency (Valves in your legs stop functioning so blood pools instead of circulating)
- Edema (swelling)
- Lymphedema (onset of Edema or swelling)
- Burn Scar
- Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT is when blood clots in leg or thigh veins, often experienced when seated without exercise for long periods)
Commonly used terms for compression stockings
