Under normal circumstances, the standard wearing time for varicose vein stockings is to put them on before getting up in the morning and take them off before going to bed at night, because when you go to bed at night, the whole body is relaxed. At this time, wearing varicose stockings is not good for blood return!
The most fundamental reason for varicose veins is that humans walk upright and the venous pressure of the lower extremities increases due to gravity. It is essentially a physical problem. Therefore, physical therapy is also the most basic and effective treatment for venous diseases of the lower extremities. Specific methods include: elevating the limbs, bandaging with elastic bandages, wearing elastic stockings and airbag pulsation squeeze pumps. It should be noted that there are many cheaper compression stockings on the market at present, but their pressure often does not meet the requirements, and it will not take a long time to relax and lose the effect. From the perspective of cost performance, professional medical stockings are still higher. Pay attention to avoid using it and only wrap it. An elastic sleeve that tightens the calf is used to treat venous diseases. It can aggravate venous congestion in the ankle and make it easier to form ulcers.
Therefore, I remind everyone that varicose vein stockings cannot be worn 24 hours a day. Under normal circumstances, you can wear them for 8-10 hours a day, especially when you have to take them off at night. Falling asleep wearing this kind of stockings may hinder the normal circulation of blood, resulting in systemic discomfort symptoms, such as rapid heartbeat and difficulty breathing.
If you wear varicose stockings for the first time, you will feel discomfort due to the high pressure of the elastic stockings. Patients can wear them for 3 to 4 hours a day. After adapting to the pressure, they can gradually increase the wearing time.
