FAQ / Compression Therapy

Frequently asked.

Answers to the questions clinical buyers and care teams ask most about this product category.

What compression level do I need?

Compression levels: 8–15 mmHg (mild, daily comfort), 15–20 mmHg (moderate, mild varicose veins), 20–30 mmHg (firm, chronic venous insufficiency, DVT prophylaxis), 30–40 mmHg (extra firm, severe varicosities, post-thrombotic), 40–50 mmHg (severe, advanced lymphedema). Always match to clinician recommendation.

What's the difference between anti-embolism and compression stockings?

Anti-embolism stockings (TEDs) provide 8–18 mmHg and are designed for bedridden hospital patients to prevent DVT. Graduated compression stockings provide 15–50 mmHg and are intended for ambulatory patients with venous insufficiency or lymphedema.

How long should I wear them each day?

Most graduated compression stockings are worn during waking hours and removed at night. Lymphedema patients may wear overnight under clinician supervision. Follow your clinical protocol.

Can I wash compression stockings?

Yes — hand wash or gentle machine wash in cold water with mild detergent. Air dry away from direct heat. Do not wring, bleach, or tumble dry. Most garments last 3–6 months with daily wear and proper care.
