Do leg compression sleeves help neuropathy

Posted by sstockton @sstockton, Jul 11 1:33pm

I have been going to PT for back pain and balance. I have neuropathy in my feet and legs possibly from lower back issues. I do not have diabetes. They started using full leg compression sleeves and it seems to help for a little while after use. I see some you can purchase and wondered if it would help to use at home?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

Thank you for your response. I also have tingly toes and feet but no loss of feeling. I do use the compression socks but at the moment with the heat I have not. I go to PT and they use the compression sleeves and it seems to help some so I just wondered if the sleeves helped others.

Dear @sstockton

I’ve got the Large ones from my lowest feet to the my knees the choice to hold-over your feet or give it open that you can add shoe stuff. Does it help the red blood to your foot? Yes, it helps me. Now I need the Large+1 on my right side that’s bigger, thicker than my lest-side.

Next, this last 2 days before, I didn’t use it. No red blood color on the top feet. It works some of that, if I need it. My wife, “put it on, Greg!”, but it doesn’t help some of that; sorta normal.

We’ll see.

Compression leg and foot sleeves is awesome. I’ve had great positive results that lasts for many hours. I try to do it every time I’m at my workout club (LifeTime Fitness). Plus I use the vibration plate to stand on as I do squats and toe/heal raisers
