Thus vascular hosiery, there is a number of companies that do charge high amounts for the hosiery, but, with a little research you can find support vascular hosiery at affordable prices.

Many local stores are beginning to carry support vascular hosiery. For example, your local discount store Wal-mart. You can find a pair for under .00 a pair to .00 for just one stocking. They can be sold separately if there is only a need for one to be used.

The support vasular hosiery from the discount store works fairly well, this from experience. After suffering from problems during pregnancies, then being on my feet for many hours a day, I started having problems with my legs, to the point where one of them actually had severe swelling around the interior of my leg. The veins seemed to be bursting out, then there was pain, throbbing that didn't want to go away. I went to a doctor, they suggested surgery. After the procedure, it was suggested that I start to wear the hosiery. Mind you being as young as I was, I felt stupid that I had to do so. Well, I was, because I didn't and the problem came back. So, I broke down and bought a pair. I found it to make a difference even after the first few hours. It was a wonderful feeling.

Mind you, I'm not the type to wear it all the time, I tend to forget or think I don't need it. It is recommended that you wear the hosiery all the time. But, to be honest, I think if you wear it when you know you will be on your feet a long time, you will find that it will still help.
