FAQ's
For most conditions, wearing compression stockings for eight to 12 hours daily is recommended, typically during waking hours. However, your healthcare provider may suggest longer wear for specific needs, such as post-surgery recovery. Always follow your doctor's advice for optimal results.
The right strength depends on your condition. Mild compression (15–20mmHg) is ideal for mild swelling or travel, while moderate (20–30mmHg) or firm (30–40mmHg) levels are used to help manage medical conditions like oedema or varicose veins. Consult your healthcare provider to see what level of compression is safe for you.
Compression stockings support healthy blood circulation by applying gentle pressure to your legs — this may help reduce swelling and ease pain and discomfort. They can be used for sports recovery, pregnancy support and long-haul travel.
While compression stockings can provide significant benefits, they are not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Always consult your healthcare provider to ensure they suit your specific condition and needs.
