Sometimes there is a problem with deep veins. The valves don’t close adequately or the transport of the blood is hindered by narrowed veins for example after deep vein thrombosis.

In this case the only effective treatment is wearing compression stockings. For an optimal effect the compression stocking needs to be made to measure. This service is available in Medical Center Oosterwal. Stockings can also be helpful in patients with persistent complaints like heavy feeling or swelling of the ankles. Adequate fitting of the stocking is essential for optimal results and experienced compression specialists are always available.
