I have a hard time with mobility issues. With my Lupus, it makes everyday task and walking extremely hard on my legs. I don't venture out of my house anymore due to this pain and it's just humiliating and makes me feel like a worthless soul. I know, I shouldn't feel like this but hey its what it is.
I have been looking for products to help ease my leg pain. One day while laying in bed I was on Instagram and someone posted about these compression socks.
I contacted the seller and they were nice enough to give me a gift card to try them.
The ordering on Amazon was easy and shipping was taken care of with #IonMeOff code applied. They arrived very fast and was exactly what I needed. The socks I got were black in the size med.
My legs hurt so bad that day and were a bit swollen
(thanks to my lovely Prednisone) said "Sarcastically"
I was praying that these would help. The socks were a bit hard to put on at first for me because my hands hurt, but I figured it out. Lol, Immediately my legs felt warm and compressed. In a good way about an hour of wear, my legs stopped hurting a bit. I was able to walk without pain Finally some relief. I went to bed for the first time with minimal leg pain and was able to sleep. When I took them off the next day my legs didn't hurt as bad, I expected my feet to be gross and sweaty but they weren't. Throughout the day my pain came back but wasn't as bad.
I have been wearing them off and on and can honestly say that I am pretty sure that they have been helping and are the reason that my legs don't hurt as bad.
I need to buy more. I am happy to say that since the day I got them I haven't taken them off except to wash them. They still held the form and felt brand new the top stayed put and didn't roll down like others I have tried. They are very well made and will last a while. Washing them was easy no extra care needed. I didn't put them in the dryer just let them air dry But they did end up being put in the dryer by my son and honestly, nothing changed.
I would suggest that if your feet are swollen maybe get the next size up. Mine were a bit tight nothing too uncomfortable.
The price is affordable and I can find myself buying more for me and Lonnie (they may help his Diabetes) & his leg pain from pretty much jacking up his legs in the USMC.
I would recommend these to any of my spoonies or anyone suffering from swollen legs and feet. I love the way they look, the way they feel and how they are helping me. Such a great product.
