Anti-thrombo socks

Anti-thrombo socks, also known as compression socks or graduated compression socks, are garments designed to improve blood circulation and reduce the risk of blood clot formation in the legs. These socks are often used in situations where individuals are immobile for long periods, such as during hospitalization or after surgery.

Anti-thrombo socks apply graduated pressure to the leg, with higher compression at the ankle that gradually decreases along the leg. This helps to push blood upwards, improving blood flow in the veins and reducing the risk of venous stasis and blood clot formation.

Anti-thrombo socks are available in various lengths and compression levels, depending on individual needs. They can cover only the lower leg or extend up to the thigh.

It is important to note that anti-thrombo socks should be worn according to the instructions and recommended duration by a healthcare professional.
