Swallen, tiered legs with varicose veins?
Wear compressing stockings.
The unit of measure used to classify the pressure of the stockings is mmHg; compression stockings are available in a range from 10 mmHg to more than 50 mmHg. Compression therapy relieves swelling and pain while narrowing the veins, decreasing venous volume, improving the venous pumping ability and reducing venous reflux by shifting blood volume form the legs to more central regions of the body. It can be used alone or in conjunction with other therapies.
