Choosing the Right Compression Stocking for Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that bulge under your skin. They normally develop when blood flow is obstructed and are more than just a cosmetic concern; they can cause discomfort and, if untreated, lead to more serious health issues. Medical compression stockings and wraps, such as the Velcare® range from us, provide an effective solution for managing varicose veins. Understanding their benefits and features can help you make an informed choice.
