@mcd123, I've been wearing compression socks for about 5 years and I have small fiber peripheral neuropathy. I also have lymphedema in my legs and it helps control the swelling. Do I like...nope, it squeezes my feet and legs and is a little uncomfortable but they do their job at controlling the swelling. And in the winter I have to wear warmer socks over the top of the compression socks because they are really thin and my feet get cold.
