Exactly What Are Compression Socks?
Compression socks go by a number of different names, you may hear them referred to as support socks, compression hose, high compression stockings or support stockings. They all fall under the same category; they are made to improve the circulation in your legs and feet, and it doing so relieve pain that is caused by the pooling of blood in the lower extremities. Despite the fact that you could probably not tell them apart from regular hosiery or socks, they do have major differences and discovering compression socks might just be the best thing that ever happened to your feet!
They come in all different styles. You can find dress socks and athletic socks for both men and women, and there are a variety of hosiery and stockings available for women that won’t compromise looks or functionality. Years ago when compression socks were first being made they catered mainly to patients with severe circulatory problems or varicose veins. Companies like Mediven, Juzo, Sigvaris and Jobst have improved on the quality and selection of compression support stockings and compression garments over the years. They can be useful for almost everybody, from athletes to people who travel regularly or work long hours and don’t get enough blood flow to their legs. They can help to prevent problems before they happen and with the new materials being used they are comfortable and fashionable as well.
If you have ever been running, or have been on your feet all day for some reason you will know the feeling of relief you get when you get up and get those sore feet elevated. It feels like instantly they start to feel better. This is because our circulatory system is always fighting with gravity when we are standing up. It is easy for the heart to pump the blood downwards into our legs but getting it back up is a different story. Especially after long periods of time, the blood can pool in our feet and legs and this can be pretty uncomfortable. It can also cause more serious health problems. Compression socks use graduated pressure to assist in the return of blood to the heart and reduce the amount of blood pooling. Wear them over the course of the day and you will certainly notice the difference.
Newer materials in use today have made the compression socks better and better. Polyesters, spandex and polymers have made them more comfortable and have made them look like regular hose or socks. They have also improved in quality, with better padding at the ankle and an overall better fit. The graduated nature of these high compression stockings is greatest in the feet, and then have progressively less compression as you move up the leg. This maintains pressure in the arteries and veins of the feet and lower leg and that prevents the pooling of blood. Go and give them a try, you will soon notice how much better your feet and legs are feeling and you will be doing your body a good turn in the long run.
