Do leg compression sleeves help neuropathy

Posted by sstockton @sstockton, Jul 11, 2024

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?

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
