Description
Medline CURAD Cushioned Compression Hosiery, Knee High, 20-30 mmHg, 1 pair
Hospital-quality compression hosiery constructed from soft, sheer nylon and spandex provides moderate support plus light, graduated compression to the lower legs to maintain blood flow and reduce discomfort and swelling. 20-30 mmHg of compression provides moderate support and is the most widely used medical grade because it provides competent compression to the legs without being too strong. The 20–30 mmHg level of compression is ideal for managing swelling in legs, spider veins, varicose veins, travel, sports and after certain surgeries. Pregnant mothers may also benefit from compression stockings to alleviate heaviness, swelling and aching in their legs. Knee length, unisix fit, with closed toe. Available in tan and black.

What's the difference between compression socks and compression stockings/hosiery?
Compression socks are also referred to as compression stockings or compression hose. The main difference between the two is based on the design and the material used in the design. Functionally, they work in the same way and there are no differences in the pressure rating for compression socks or compression stockings.
