I’d agree with @casey1329
Everyone is different, and if you’ve had neuropathy for a long time and/or other chronic pain, your nervous system might be sensitive to the stimuli. It might help to be cautious and start with a lower amount of compression—maybe just order something from Amazon and see if you like the sensation first before investing in something more serious.
The medical grade compression can get really expensive.
I made the mistake of getting the highest amount of compression tights as recommended by my neurology PA after I got a diagnosis of POTS. And it made my symptoms way worse (including neuropathy), which is not what’s supposed to happen.
I might have been able to tolerate it if I started with less compression, but I really didn’t like it so didn’t feel it was worth it for me to try to work my way up. But that’s just me, and I’m very particular about the feel of socks or other things on my feet and legs.
me too. i don't like wearing socks unless i go out. and that includes shoes. i've always been this way.
