First time I tried putting it on the zipper broke. Tough to get a refund from amazon.

Yes, They also work great for football cleats too. I haven't had any ankle issues. Not to bulky.

The sock works well. I have ankle and arch problems and it works for me. The sock is open toed, it does compress the top of the foot, but not as much as the ankle.

I have used it on my knee and it appeared to alleviate the pain but not reduce it to zero

1st) It does not get cold like ice or the gel cold packs. So if you have tendonitis or a swollen ankle it will not work. 2) It is cold for about 7 minutes and cool/cold for about 12 minutes after that.

I think the ankle support would help your ankles.It is a soft support, but if your ankles swell too much it would certainly bind. Hope this helps.

This sleeve did provide comfort and relief from the pain. It could reduce swelling but I would only do that at night. If you are having lots of daytime swelling this will not heal you and could make things worse. You could use it for short periods like a trip to the store, or a walk, but don't plan on having it on all day to fix everything. Good luck...I have a new empathy for people with foot pain. We need our feet!

The answer is no. Please read below:1- To find your size, first measure around the calf (widest part of lower leg) and also around the ankles. Go to the size chart on the product page and based on the mesurements taken you´ll find your size.2- The support is determined by severity of swelling/edema. Mild swelling will do with a 15-20, I wear 20-30 Large with a calf 16.5" when swollen. 3- Any compression over 20-30 is best determined by a doctor as it may cause unwanted side effects or dangerous over compression if not needed. 4- If your problem is lymphatic drainage, there re ways to manually massage for relief and these stocking compliment/work like magic. Always best to check with a doctor first. The answer is no. Please read below:1- To find your size, first measure around the calf (widest part of lower leg) and also around the ankles.

I purchased this for relief of bursitis and tendonitis and it worked very well. I had swelling and tenderness which the Slimfit helped relieve. It only reaches right above the ankle though. Hope this helps.

I've only had mine for just over three months, but it works fine. After a thorough foot massage I find it useful for increasing circulation and it reliably gets rid of occasional swelling in my feet when the massage alone has failed.

Yes. I wear mine around my ankle all the time around the house; especially if I am at risk of getting it wet when doing housework or working out on the elliptical. When I'm going to leave the house, I wrap it around my ankle and pull my sock up over the band so it won't accidentally get knocked off my leg.

I use this product to reduce inflammation due to arthritis but don't see much difference in discomfort or energy level.

It actually took about 3 months to notice the lack of swelling in the feet and ankles...but then it eliminated the swelling completely in another few weeks.

The bauerfreind website gives the measurements above and below the knee. The measurements are right on for each size. It is not a tight fit so it should work for a mild degree of swelling. If u have a lot of swelling u might need one size larger
