Compression Socks to Reduce the Development of Varicose Veins

We all know what spider and varicose veins look like, we may blame genetics or a job that imposed a lot of sitting or standing. Why not prevent them or stop them in their tracks?

Compression socks with medical-grade compression technology are the best non-surgical way to reduce the symptoms and long-term side effects of varicose veins. The cause is often poor venous return, which can also lead to pain and heaviness in the legs, skin discolouration and even ulcers.

Varicose veins are a common medical problem that many people suffer with and in some people they can be very severe. The condition is where the veins become swollen and enlarged often blue or deep purple in colour. Typical symptoms include, aching, heavy legs, swollen feet and ankles often causing muscle cramps.

All VR products are designed to control the development of the condition and ease the discomfort caused by the dysfunctional valves in the veins, but the selection below offer best relief for those with a developed condition. They will prevent the veins from worsening, ease symptoms and may even help reduce bulging.

If you're considering surgery on your veins, the first thing a consultant will do is prescribe compression for daily wear over 6 weeks pre and post procedure to get your legs and veins in optimum condition. Why not try it for yourself and see the difference a little support can make.
