Neuropathy: What works and what are scams?

@ktpatton I wear my 20-30 mmhg compression socks during the day with shoes or slippers in the house. I take them off at bedtime but do put on longer loose diabetic socks after putting lotion on my legs to moisturize the skin. I do have idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy but the socks don't help with that for me. They were prescribed to help control the leg swelling caused by my lymphedema in both legs. Did your doctor suggest the amount of compression for the socks, like 15 to 20, or 20 to 30 mmhg?

Thank you for your reply. The doctor made no mention of the amount of compression, but I can ask. The tag only lists the materials used in the socks. My receipts simply says "Hyper Grip Compression Socks (hgc).
