Compression Stocking for Pain Relief in London, ON
During pregnancy or with individuals in a sedentary work environment, we may experience blood pooling near our feet due to gravity. This causes the veins to stretch and lose the elasticity they require to circulate blood. Compression stockings are worn to help prevent or guard against the progression of venous disorders such as edema, phlebitis, and thrombosis. Wearing compression stockings will help reduce the diameter of distended veins and increase blood flow velocity, providing relief for heavy aching legs.
