    Organizing and summarizing search results for you
    Compression stockings are worn to improve blood flow in the veins of your legs. They gently squeeze your legs to move blood up your legs, which helps prevent leg swelling and blood clots. Compression stockings are also known as pressure socks. They can help reduce pooling of blood in the legs and prevent lightheadedness or falling when you stand up. Compression stockings are often prescribed for people with varicose veins, spider veins, or those who just had surgery.
