Varicose veins

Varicose veins

Varicose veins are often caused by impaired blood flow in the legs. This can lead to a heavy or tired feeling, visible veins, or fluid retention. Herzog Medical develops medical support stockings that actively support blood circulation. The compression helps relieve varicose vein symptoms and prevents them from worsening. The stockings are comfortable, non-constricting, and suitable for daily use.

Why compression stockings help with varicose veins

Compression stockings for varicose veins, also called support stockings, provide targeted pressure around the ankles and calves. Custom-made stockings provide medical compression (MDR) , with pressure that stimulates blood circulation and supports the return of blood to the heart. This reduces tension in the superficial veins, helping to relieve existing varicose veins and prevent them from worsening.

Herzog's PRO Compression Socks are specially designed for long-term support of the legs with varicose veins. Thanks to their medical-grade pressure distribution, they fit perfectly and remain comfortable, even when standing or sitting for long periods. They are an excellent choice for those with a genetic predisposition, pregnancy, or symptoms such as tired legs caused by varicose veins.

Can I wear compression stockings for varicose veins in my legs?

Yes, compression stockings are an effective way to reduce the symptoms of varicose veins in the legs. They support blood circulation, reduce pressure on the veins, and can help combat swelling and fatigue. Herzog's PRO Compression Stockings, in particular, provide medical-grade compression suitable for daily use. Want to learn more about varicose veins? Visit our informative page on varicose veins .

01
Can compression stockings also be used preventively against varicose veins?


Absolutely. If you sit or stand for long periods of time, or have an increased risk of varicose veins—for example, due to heredity or pregnancy—Herzog support stockings can provide preventative support. They improve circulation and help prevent varicose veins in the legs by counteracting excessive pressure on the blood vessels.

02
What is the difference between support stockings and medical compression stockings for varicose veins?

Compression stockings provide light, generalized pressure. Medical compression stockings, such as those from Herzog, have a precise pressure distribution that tapers from ankle to knee. This makes them more effective for varicose vein complaints. Our PRO Compression stockings fall into the medical category and are suitable for both preventing and relieving existing varicose vein complaints.
