Diabetic socks? never heard of them, Why? what do they do? what is wrong with regular socks?

Normal socks are generally too tight at the top unless one is built like a drainpipe! Tight socks are not avisable for the circulation problems diabetic and heart patients have. D.
 
I had a problem with normal socks and circulation so I cut through the elasticated part with scissors it relieved the pressure and resulting discomfort.

I never used to wear socks, but when I was diagnosed I did start to wear them
So long as the ankles aren't tight, and the toes don't rub, I find they're ok now.
(However, I can't be bothered pairing them, so I never actually wear matching socks.)

You'll be telling us next you wear your shoes on the wrong feet! :)
