30-40mmHg Medical Graduated Compression Socks for Women&Men Circulation-Compression Stockings-Knee High Socks for Support,Hiking,Running

In my prime, I had to wear compression socks to prevent my blood pressure from dropping below 80/60 when I worked hard which would cause weakness, lightheadedness, and the possibility of fainting. mmHg 10-20 socks worked which was good because mmHg compression socks I tried back them were almost impossible to get on. I am now 84 years old and mmHg socks no longer stop my blood pressure from dropping too low when I work hard so I tried mmHg 20-30 socks which didn't prevent blood pressure from dropping too low so I ordered these. The good news is that I can get them on and are comfortable once on. Further good news is that they have not increased blood pressure too much, the highest so far in readings so far in five days wearing them has been 134/ 85 while not working hard but was 109/79 having been 115/85 but was 109/79 five hours later. I have only worn them once while working hard and blood pressure after 6 hours doing so was 90/62 as compared to as low as 77/47 wearing my old 10-20 mmHg compression socks and not much better wearing 20-3O mmHg compression socks that I ordered. I will be ordering more.

Fit was terrible, graduated compression was not even.

Hubby needs these so I bought him a few sets… they are prettier than the traditional black but he put his thumb right through them on the very first day… he did say the compression was good but I was not happy about the hole!!

needed 30/40 compression socks for leg swelling....these are not strong enough for this purpose...returned them and would not recommend as these are like regular socks

They are good quality and comfortable but I wish they were 1.5 or inches longer so they came just below my knee. I would have given five stars. They remind me of the goldtoe compression socks that were discontinued five years ago. Firm compression and good quality. But goldtoe was longer.
