Thigh Length Stockings
Thigh-length stockings are essential medical garments designed to provide graduated pressure, typically in levels 1 and 2, ranging from 18-21 mmHg and 23-32 mmHg, respectively. These pressures are crucial for promoting proper blood circulation in the legs. By applying this graduated compression, thigh-high compression socks serve as a preventive measure against deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Additionally, they aid in reducing the risk of further developing severe varicose veins, offering comfort and support to individuals with venous insufficiencies. The level 1 thigh-high stockings are used as a preventive measure or to provide support while traveling or working.
Class 2 medical thigh high stockings, falling under the category of level 2 compression, are particularly effective for managing post-surgical recovery from venous insufficiencies. However, it is essential to note that these stockings should be under the guidance and recommendation of a healthcare practitioner. This ensures that the compression level and fit are appropriate for the individual’s specific needs, promoting both comfort and effectiveness in treatment.
