Are these compression socks?

Hello My son wears these socks when he plays football. They have slight padding for protection at the heel. They are snug and supportive and offer mild compression, especially at the arch. Hope this helps.

Yes. They are lightweight and cloth but they have enough compression that keeps my hands from swelling. They do take a little getting used to at first but after that they are wonderful!

No. They are for stretching the toe area as shown in the photo to widen and relieve pressure on the baby toe. Sorry.

I don't see why not. They are a knee high dress sock that offers compression. Many runners are using compression socks these days.

Yes both my podiatrist and cardiologist says they. They work as well as the regular compression socks I had but now I have separate toes. The more I wear them the more I like them.

I'm sorry I don't know anything about the product you're asking about. I bought the surgical open toed compression socks. Those are comfortable and the band does not pinch or roll.

These did not fit me, but I'm a woman. I suspect that by "medical grade" you're referring to what doctor's would recommend. Doctors typically measure your legs and feet, then prescribe fitted compression socks. They're very expensive, but they are wonderful for those who have serious circulation problems. If you're just looking for quick fixes (such as wearing them on airplanes) these would work fine. But if you have medical issues, then you may need to get a doctor to measure you and prescribe compression socks.

Compression socks help move blood from your feet and legs back toward your heart. They also keep swelling down.

You might check Brightlifedirect - they have things to help put on compression socks/stockings (which they mainly sell), so maybe something like that would help. Arcoa actually makes something to help with socks, check out their site to see many products. They go under Arcmate now, it seems, particularly for such helpful gadgets.

They are thinner than regular socks so I would say no. They are not real rough.

No, these are thermal socks. They are used to keep your feet warm in cold climates.

I don't think they look like medical socks. I have large calves and they aren't to tight for me

No. there is a seam on the toe section. However, the socks are thick enough that I had not even noticed until I saw your question.

I would guess they are on the low end around 10-15 mmhg. If you are looking for higher compression these will not be what you're looking for. I can tell you myself and girlfriend wear them everyday to work and for being on our feet 10 hour shifts neither one of us have any foot pain when getting home now after wear this product.

Not really. My husband wears these over his compression socks and actually wears two pairs so that they stay up. They are a good buy for the $$. They are not too tight at the top which has always been a problem for him.

I can't say that they are "medical grade" but after my knee replacement, I cited the specs of these to my doctor and PT who said they have enough compression to easily equal or better the typical white compression stockings. They worked a treat for me even while I was still in the throes of severe and constant edema shortly after the knee replacement.

Not exactly sure, but if I had to make an educated guess I would say that they are extremely similar to trouser socks, polyester socks with spandex. I have 2 pair of these and 4 pair of Compression Sockss that are made of 82% Polyamide & 18% Elastine. They feel amazing.
