Description
Polar Elastic Stockings Above Knee are medical compression stockings designed to provide graduated pressure to the legs, primarily used to improve blood circulation, reduce swelling, and prevent blood clots, particularly deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
They belong to the class of medical compression garments.
Their mechanism of action involves applying consistent pressure to the leg veins, helping to enhance venous return to the heart, reduce venous pressure, and decrease venous stasis.
These stockings are worn on the leg up to just above the knee and come in various sizes to ensure proper fit and effective compression.
They are commonly used in conditions such as chronic venous insufficiency, varicose veins, postoperative recovery, and during long periods of immobility.
Care instructions generally include washing the stockings regularly and wearing them as directed by a healthcare provider.
There are minimal side effects, but improper sizing or prolonged use without guidance can cause discomfort or skin irritation.
Polar Elastic Stockings should be stored in a clean, dry place.
