Medical Compression

 Compression Garments are specialized elastic apparel designed to apply controlled, graduated pressure to limbs or other body areas. As a core medical therapy, they are used to treat and manage lymphedema, chronic venous insufficiency, venous ulcers, and to improve burn scar outcomes. Their function is based on a precise pressure gradient that assists venous and lymphatic return, reduces swelling, and supports tissue. Medical-grade compression requires professional fitting, a prescription for higher classes, and is contraindicated in patients with significant arterial disease. Proper donning, daily skin care, and regular replacement are essential for safety and therapeutic effectiveness.
