Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between open toe and closed toe compression socks?
  Open toe compression socks do not cover the toes – the fabric ends at the ball of the foot. Closed toe compression socks cover the toes.
• How many hours a day should you wear knee high stockings?
  Generally it is recommended to wear them for 2-8 hours a day, depending on the severity of your symptoms.
• Why should compression stockings be removed at night?
  Your blood does not have to move from your feet to your heart against gravity when you are reclining. Because of this, most medical professionals concur that wearing graduated compression socks while you sleep is not required.
• Who should not wear knee-high compression stockings?
  People who suffer from arthritis, concomitant dermatoses or advanced peripheral neuropathy will also be discouraged from using compression stockings.
• How long can I wear compression socks?
  Compression socks should be worn during the day and removed before bed. First thing in the morning, put them back on. If you're wearing socks on both legs, you should receive at least 2 pairs or 2 pairs of socks. This implies that you can wear one stocking (or pair) while washing and drying the other.
