For Diabetics: Special, soft, and breathable socks that protect the feet from wounds, friction, and infections.
Graduated Compression: Socks with gradually decreasing pressure applied to the leg (with higher pressure at the ankle and lower towards the calf), in order to facilitate venous blood return to the heart.
Compression Class 1: Light compression that helps with good blood circulation, reduces pain and at the same time protects against venous diseases.
Compression Class 2: Moderate compression for surface action against varicose veins, mild edema or after surgical intervention to maintain therapy.
Compression Class 3: Strong compression for severe varicose veins with visible swelling, for advanced chronic venous insufficiency, and for reversible lymphedema.
Compression Class 4: Extremely strong compression for severe thrombotic syndrome or irreversible lymphedema.
