Compression socks

[Pat5496]

Have you worn compression socks to improve the circulation in your feet? Did they help? Any particular brand you’d recommend?

No, but just to say that my vascular specialist emphasised the importance of good glucose control, no smoking and plenty of exercise. But you probably know all that!

Hello @Pat5496

I haven't come across any recommendations, if you are able to then exercise then this is the best way to improve circulation, keeps the blood pumping through the veins and to the heart, even just walking to prevent 'pooling' in the veins, is good.

I have worn Jobst pressure stockings for years, these were first recommended by the the vascular specialist to help the circulation in getting a wound to heal in my leg by stopping the swelling that was occuring.
