Class 2 compression garments

2

— compression garments in the second class exert a pressure force of 23-32 mm Hg, effectively preventing the further expansion of veins in cases of varicose veins. This level of compression is beneficial for addressing leg swelling, as it prevents the accumulation of interstitial fluid in tissues. Class 2 compression wear is recommended for conditions such as lymphedema, thrombophlebitis, post-leg surgery, and general leg swelling. It is also used in the prevention of deep vein thrombosis and managing chronic venous insufficiency.
