There are many medical conditions affecting our bodies that create the need for wearing compression garments. You can wear stockings to improve blood flow in your legs and prevent swelling and, to a lesser extent, blood clots. This can be helpful to pregnant women who deal with varicose veins or spider veins, or to the individual who is recovering from surgery. A prescription of compression garments is a common occurrence in these circumstances.

Another important use for compression garments is for the patient dealing with Lymphedema. The use of these garments focuses on minimizing the swelling and controlling the pain. These garments are typically worn on the affected limb following complete decongestive therapy to maintain edema reduction and to compress the arm or leg and encourage the flow of lymph fluid out of the affected limb. Your doctor will instruct you on which garment will be the best fit for your situation and whether or not this garment should be worn 24 hours a day or in smaller increments of time.

Patients struggling with Lymphedema are often dealing with a cancer diagnosis, as well.  The fluid build-up in soft body tissues is often caused by cancer and cancer treatment. It can potentially cause long-term physical, psychological, and social problems for patients.
