Support hosiery for varicose vein, leg problems, maternity

SUPPORT HOSIERY

Support Hosiery can help with many different leg problems. Graduated compression support hosiery and support socks are the medically accepted way to relieve minor or more serious leg pain related to swelling, venous insufficiency, deep vein thrombosis, varicose veins or other conditions. Wearing support stockings results in significantly reduced fluid accumulation in the legs and a reduced leg volume increase. General comfort is also improved with less leg aching, tightness and heaviness. Neck, shoulder and lower back discomfort plus overall fatigue are also improved. In the short term, support stockings can improve how the legs feel and make standing for prolonged periods a little more bearable. Support stockings may reduce the load on the lymphatic system, improve tissue and cellular health in the lower limbs and prevent or slow the onset of problems such as varicose veins.

The wearing time for gradient compression stockings is dependent on both the reason for wearing the compression (indication) and the amount of compression (mmHg). An individual's physician or health care practitioner is a good resource for this information. Here are some general guidelines:

1. Individuals with chronic venous problems such as venous related leg swelling, skin changes, or varicose veins, generally wear the compression stockings while out of bed (approximately 16 hours/day) and remove them at night.
2. Immediately following sclerotherapy physicians may instruct individuals to wear a specific level of compression continuously for a specified number of hours or days depending on the size of the veins injected.
3. Individuals with lymphedema are advised to follow the wearing schedule recommended by their physician or therapist.
4. Bed bound patients may be advised by their physician to wear anti embolism stockings (16 18 mmHg) to help prevent blood clots from forming in the deep veins of the leg.

Anti embolism - designed for the bed bound patient
Anti embolism stockings are designed specifically for the non ambulatory patients to help prevent blood from pooling in the veins of the leg. Pooling of blood in the veins of the leg may contribute to blood clots forming in the veins.
These surgical support hose are generally made for short duration of wear during a hospitalization. Anti embolism stockings deliver gradient compression and, depending on the manufacturer, the compression delivered to the ankle is in the range of 12 20 mmHg. Legluxe offers these support stockings in a variety of colors. They come in different styles, including support thigh high and legwarmers. These support hose have special "wave" knit that micro massages legs and feet and keep legs and feet warm and comfortable.

Varicose veins - effectively treated with support hosiery
Although many people with varicose veins don't have any other symptoms some people may have swelling or pain in the legs, itching, soreness or aching. Some skin discoloration may also occur. Varicose, or spider veins may be influenced by a number of factors. Being older, overweight, and having a job that requires standing all day may contribute to varicose veins. Other factors may be heredity, crossing the legs often, using birth control pills, or use of post menopausal hormone therapies. Women are up to four times more likely than men to develop varicose veins.
Treatment may not be necessary unless you are experiencing pain. Wearing compression stockings is often the first approach to try before moving on to other treatments. Compression stockings are worn all day long. They steadily squeeze your legs, helping veins and leg muscles move blood more efficiently. The amount of compression varies by type and brand. Support hose may help reduce symptoms in some people. Legluxe support stockings come in a variety of strengths, styles and colors. With the variety offered, you're likely to find a stocking that you're comfortable wearing. In addition, lifestyle changes like losing weight, exercise, and getting off your feet may also help.

Diabetes - diabetic sock makes foot care an integral part of daily diabetes care routine
Diabetes can affect the lower legs and feet in two significant ways:
Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD):
A disease of the large blood vessels that can affect the arms, legs, and feet. PVD may occur when major blood vessels in these areas are blocked and do not receive enough blood. The signs of PVD are aching pains and slow healing foot sores.
Peripheral Neuropathy:
Nerve damage that affects the hands, legs, and feet. Peripheral neuropathy causes pain, numbness, or a tingling feeling in the extremities. About 60 70% of people with diabetes have mild to severe forms of nerve damage.
Most diabetics can avoid serious foot problems by taking care of their feet. Legluxe offers the complete diabetic sock. These diabetic support hose are available with closed toe or with open toe for diabetic patients with cutaneous trophic insufficiency or in cases of bunions. The new generation yarns make it easy to wear, looking soft and elegant.
