I wear zippered compression socks to control the swelling in my legs but it doesn't help with the discomfort. Has your doctor recommended compression socks?

I have a custom made foot cap for my toes, but after a while it feels like my foot is in a vice. I don't wear it often but I try. I am wearing thigh high compression stockings because I had sclerotherapy a couple of weeks ago for spider veins. I'm using a LV BASE (Sequential Circulator Device) that was ordered by my PT. It feels good and is supposed to move the fluid up to my gut. I've just had it a week. I'm drinking limon water now, and researching other things to help.
Thanks,
Suzi
