I have lymphedema in both legs but a little worse in my right leg. I was prescribed 20 to 30 mmHg compression socks for the daytime but I take them off at night. I found putting the socks on to be the pits even with demos from the PA and using one of those devices that is supposed to make it easy (not for me). I put up with them for about 3 months before finding some zippered 20 to 30 mmHg compression socks. They are easy on, easy off and seem to be working OK for me. I also try to sleep with my feet elevated slightly above my heart to help with the drainage. Until I bought an adjustable bed, I put a couple of folded blankets under the mattress at the bottom of the bed to raise it slightly. At night, I put a moisturizer lotion on the feet and legs and wear a pair of loose diabetic socks.
