Compression therapy is a common treatment to help improve blood flow in the lower legs. It usually involves the use of elastic stockings or wraps. The elastic provides compression on the legs, ankles and feet. This helps prevent blood from pooling and fluid from building up in these areas. The compression therapy device includes compression stockings that go up to the knee and are the most common type of compression apparel. If swelling extends above the knee, patients may need longer stockings or tights that come up to the waist. Manufacturers rate compression socks based on how much pressure they provide. The amount of compression that is needed depends on the condition. The units for measuring compression are mmHg, or millimeters of mercury. There is no standard scale for rating compression stockings. These products gently squeeze the leg, which helps blood flow faster and keep moving in the right direction. Pressure from compression socks can keep fluid from leaking out of small blood vessels in the legs. It can help prevent swelling when people must sit or stand still for long periods such as some people who wear them on long airplane flights or if they stand on their feet a lot at work.
The growth of the compression therapy market is driven by surge in incidence of injuries related to sports activities, increase in availability & affordability of various types of compression products, and incidences of conditions such as varicose veins that help to increase the demand for compression products. For instance, according to the data published on Cureus, Part of Springer Nature, the population-based study was conducted in Russia in 2020 on the prevalence of chronic venous disease (CVD), it reported that 29% of individuals of which 31.5% of men, 27.5% of women were found to have primary varicose veins.
