The PRIM Varidol strong pantyhose is a pantyhose that promotes blood circulation in the legs, offering a preventive or therapeutic effect. This is because they exert a gradual pressure that benefits the so-called venous return.
Veins suffering from varicose veins lose their ability to pump blood back to the heart. The pressure exerted by compression stockings facilitates this process, preventing the blood from staying in the lower limbs and clotting.
Similarly, legs with venous insufficiency are characteristically swollen. Part of the treatment to alleviate the discomfort caused by this condition is the use of compression stockings, which help to improve blood pumping and reduce swelling.
Treatments such as surgery or laser blast treatments to the legs are also supported by the use of compression stockings. This will help prevent fluid accumulation and optimise blood flow up the legs to avoid problems such as blood clots.
Strong compression stockings are those that exert the most intense pressure and are especially favourable for legs with advanced venous insufficiency. They are also part of the treatment for venous obstruction. These stockings are used under medical supervision.
