do these work on varicose veins?

Yes, they do, and also prevent more to develop. I sent a pair to my mother, and she just love them, because they don't trap her toes, yet they keep the pain and inflammation away.

Hi Pam, sorry, I don't know if they do or not. I experienced calf muscle cramps while wearing them. They just were not for me.

Pam,I have had the pleasure of only a few weeks wearing these compression socks. I can attest that it reduces the swelling and aches of standing all day, therefore I believe it should reduce the development or progression of varicose veins. Hope this helps. Buy a pair, you should see immediate relief. I'm ordering my fourth pair after this update!

Yes! I'm not a doctor, so you should definitely talk to yours about this if you're worried, but compression socks are actually very good for pregnant women because they can really help the blood circulation problems that are associated with pregnancy, and might help prevent varicose veins as well.

They are not huge pills. Mine were like the size of a standard Tylenol capsule. They were easy to swallow, but I took a whole bottle of those things and never noticed a difference in the feel or condition of my legs (spider veins).

These helps you to improve the return of the veins blood flow, when you stand for long periods of time at the end you will be less tired and prevents varices to develop. I encourage you to use them on a daily basis.

no, what you see is what you get. it's just for lower legs. I bought them for my Mom and they do help with her circulation.

While I'm not a doctor, I'd think this product would work on men, too. I didn't see anything on the box that said it was strictly for women. Vericose veins don't apply to just women, so it might be worth a try.

Yes! They work great! I use on my rough areas of my feet a few times a week after a night time shower, go to bed with socks & vaseline on my feet, my feet look & feel great by morning! :-)

If you're talking about discoloration, yes...as for broken veins, not sure. Don't have that problem.

not sure, i bought them for my aunt; she has blood flow issues that when standing prolong periods, has pain issue. I do suggest buying a size or 2 higher (in your case, x large or larger), she complained it being too tight. Because these are meant for lower parts, I doubt it would work for thigh.

I bought for my wife she has varicose veins and they do help with the pain. I would also look into dietary suppliments like magnesium along wth cherries or cherry juice which helps relieve muscle cramps. I use a knee compression support which has helped a lot with knee pain to the point I avoided another surgery. Calcium is what mucles use to cramp and magnesium use them to relax.

Yes they do. I use one on my nylon string classical guitar and also on my nylgut string ukulele. They do not damage the stings or sound clunky. I recommend.

Yes. They work. However, I wouldn't recommend this product because the rubber sheath tends to fray at the connector. I went through 3 sets due to fraying. Too bad because they sound great.

They work with or without blood thinners, work great for post dialysis bleeding control

I am not a MD but I don't see why no. Any compression stockings that are comfortable will work. just be sure they are not to tight at the top that they cut off the circulation. just like any other sock.

They fit TRUE test meters. If CVS has TRUE test meters then these should work on them. My meter is TRUE but it comes from Publix pharmacy. Call your local CVS and ask the pharmacist or technician on duty to be more accurate. They will know.

Probably. But not sure because I chose not to use it. It was a very orangey color on my skin and did not blend very well. I just wanted something to use mainly around my ankles where I have some spider veins. This must be used on the whole leg or not at all. Did not work for me.
