MEDIAL Medical compression calf stockings class 2 open toe - black, size M

MEDIAL medical compression knee-highs are a Class 2 medical compression device that effectively supports the proper function of your venous circulation. They are designed to provide relief from issues such as varicose veins, swelling, or the feeling of heavy legs. Thanks to graduated compression with a pressure of 23–32 mmHg in the ankle area, they help improve blood flow and prevent thrombosis. The open-toe and seamless design ensures comfortable wear all day long.

The Principle of Graduated Compression

The knee-highs work on the principle of graduated pressure. The highest compression is applied at the ankle and gradually decreases towards the calf. This mechanism effectively supports the function of the venous valves and helps return blood from the lower limbs back to the heart. This reduces the risk of blood pooling in the legs, which causes swelling, pain, and a feeling of fatigue. The targeted pressure helps to stabilise blood circulation and acts as effective prevention against deep vein thrombosis.

Comfortable Material and Construction

The material composition of 70% nylon and 30% spandex gives the knee-highs the necessary elasticity and strength. As a result, they fit snugly on the leg without restricting movement. The material is breathable, which allows the skin to breathe and reduces sweating. The open-toe and seamless design are key for all-day comfort. The open toe provides space for the toes and makes it easier to check the skin's condition, while the absence of seams minimises the risk of pressure marks or irritation.

Support During Activity and at Rest

You will appreciate these compression knee-highs in many situations that strain the venous system. They are suitable for preventing swelling and thrombosis during long periods of sitting in the office, in the car, or while travelling by plane. They also provide relief for people who spend most of the day on their feet. Their benefits are also evident during increased strain on the lower limbs, for example during pregnancy, when they help manage swelling and the feeling of heavy legs. The unisex design is suitable for both men and women.
