Does it help with the vericose veins?


No, but a Jeffrey can take care of that.

Weird. Compression socks are not all that cool. But if you are old and can barely walk, then yeah, I guess they work.

Thick arse socks that last. OK. But Ortho is your friend. Look it up

venous insufficiency after a provoked blood clot. Not sure how well they work for varicose veins. I work for CIS and see plenty of patients with varicose veins who wear them and it doesn’t appear to actually make them go away. Maybe it helps with the discomfort.


I had bad varicose veins in one leg. The varicosities were so bad that CIS had to go in 3 times to close up my main veins in my thigh. They were all doctor office procedures. You could see the varicosities on a CAT scan that they did, in one leg the veins were perfectly, but the other was nothing but bad curly veins with bad valves.

Since they fixed my issues, I don’t wear the compression leggings anymore. Since my varicosities are from my ankle up, if I do feel like wearing the leggings, I usually just wear the Nike ProCombat or UnderArmour leggings or 3/4 leggings, but I will get one size smaller for compression. They are waist high so they won’t bunch in the knee. That was my biggest complaint on the medical grade ones. They were always too big and bunched at the knees or the ankles. I will be flying in a few weeks, I may want to wear them for the flight.

I wear these for tennis in cold weather. It’s too hot in warm months but wish I could wear them then, too.
