FAQ
Questions before choosing your compression?
Here are a few quick answers to help you choose the right compression level, style, and fit.
What compression level do I need?
For general wellness and travel, 8-15 mmHg may be enough. For minor swelling or daily support, 15-20 mmHg is common. For moderate symptoms, 20-30 mmHg offers firmer support. For severe swelling, lymphedema, chronic venous issues, or post-treatment care, 30-40 mmHg should usually be used with medical guidance.
How do I know if my compression socks fit properly?
They should feel snug and supportive, but not painful. Measure your ankle, calf, and thigh when needed, then compare your measurements with the product size chart.
Can I wear compression socks all day?
Many customers wear compression during work, travel, or daily routines. Remove them if you feel pain, numbness, tingling, or skin irritation.
What is the difference between open toe and closed toe?
Open toe styles leave the toes free and can be more comfortable in warmer weather or with certain shoes. Closed toe styles offer full foot coverage and a more traditional feel.
Are there options for wide calves or extended sizing?
Yes. Rescue Legs offers extended sizing and wide-calf options so customers can find compression that fits properly without sacrificing support.
Should I talk to a doctor before using compression?
Yes, especially if you have diabetes, neuropathy, peripheral artery disease, heart conditions, circulation problems, severe swelling, or an existing medical condition.
