- Stockings for varicose veins, commonly known as compression stockings, are a specialized type of hosiery designed to help manage the symptoms of varicose veins and other related conditions. They work by applying gentle pressure to your legs, which can improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and alleviate pain or discomfort associated with varicose veins. Here are some key points to consider when looking at compression stockings for varicose veins:

Types of Compression Stockings: There are various types of compression stockings, including knee-high, thigh-high, and pantyhose styles. The choice depends on the area affected by varicose veins.
Levels of Compression: Compression stockings come in different levels of tightness, measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). The range typically goes from mild (8-15 mmHg) to extra firm (30-40 mmHg). It's important to choose the right level of compression based on your specific needs and the advice of a healthcare professional.
Fit and Sizing: Proper fit is crucial for compression stockings to be effective. They should be snug but not painfully tight. Measurements are usually taken at specific points on your leg to ensure a good fit. It's often recommended to put them on first thing in the morning before swelling can occur.
Material and Maintenance: These stockings are made from various materials, including nylon, cotton, spandex, or a combination. They require careful maintenance, usually needing to be hand-washed and air-dried to maintain their elasticity.
Medical Consultation: Before using compression stockings, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare provider, especially if you have conditions like peripheral neuropathy, peripheral artery disease, skin infections, or dermatitis. They can recommend the appropriate compression level and ensure that the stockings won't cause any harm.
Wearing Schedule: Your doctor or a healthcare professional can advise you on how long each day you should wear the stockings. Some people may need to wear them all day, while others might only need them for certain activities.
Potential Benefits: For those with varicose veins, compression stockings can help alleviate pain, swelling, and heaviness in the legs, reduce the risk of developing blood clots (especially during long periods of inactivity), and slow the progression of varicose veins.
Where to Buy: Compression stockings can be purchased at medical supply stores, pharmacies, online, or sometimes directly from healthcare providers. Prescription-strength stockings are also available and may be covered by insurance in some cases.
Remember, while compression stockings can help manage symptoms, they don't cure varicose veins. Lifestyle changes and medical treatments may also be necessary depending on the severity of your condition. Always follow the guidance of healthcare professionals for the best care and treatment of varicose veins.

Thanks
So much valuable information 🙏🙏
Hey thanks. Glad you liked it
Thanks for the video doctor and it is very helpful. Can we also have details on what duration stockings have to be changed/replaced like 6 months or one year once? and how to wash them and the frequency it need to be washed.
Hi. Usual life is 6 months but can be judged when they start getting loose. Washing is hand wash. No twisting though. Liquid gentle detergent. Usually once in 2-3 days.

I am from Bangladesh. How much cost varicosil embrolization, sir. ❤❤
Approx. 1.5, lakh +
The vein which is closed during the operation, is the closed vein opened after 3-4 months. So that the blood can circulate as before, sir❤❤
@emonhosan8112 no the closed vein doesn't open. Closing it doesn't affect circulation. Circulation takes place by collateral bypass channels.
Then the blood will pass through the small veins attached to the vas deferens. Can both testicles be operated at the same time sir?❤❤
@emonhosan8112 yes they can.
