Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 15-20 mmHg and 20-30 mmHg?
20-30 mmHg provides firm compression for more pronounced symptoms like moderate to severe varicose veins, persistent swelling, or chronic venous insufficiency. It is a medical-grade class often recommended after a clinical diagnosis and physician evaluation. The 15-20 mmHg level is moderate compression for milder symptoms. For comprehensive guidance on choosing the right level, see our compression levels guide.

How do I choose the right size?
Accurate measurement is critical for safe and effective firm compression. Measure your ankle circumference, calf circumference, and calf length in the morning when swelling is minimal. Even small sizing errors can reduce therapeutic effectiveness or cause discomfort at this compression level. Please refer to our detailed compression stocking sizing guide for step-by-step measurement instructions.

Are these difficult to put on?
Firm compression stockings require more effort to don compared to lighter compression levels. Using donning aids like rubber gloves or a stocking donner can make the process significantly easier and protect the garment's fibers from damage. Proper donning technique ensures optimal therapeutic benefit and garment longevity.

Can I wear these for travel?
Yes, 20-30 mmHg is an excellent choice for long-distance travel as it provides strong support to promote healthy circulation during extended immobility on flights or long car journeys. This compression level is particularly beneficial for those with existing venous conditions or higher DVT risk. Ensure you remain mobile when possible and stay well-hydrated during travel.

Can I wear these all day?
Yes, JOBST Relief Knee High Compression Socks are specifically designed for all-day wear when properly fitted. It is generally recommended to remove them at night unless otherwise directed by your physician. Consistent daily wear provides the best therapeutic outcomes for managing chronic venous conditions.
