Achilles Tendon Compression Sleeve

How Do Compression Socks Help Achilles Tendonitis？

We've interviewed many people with Achilles tendonitis who have used our products and learned that compression stockings can be extremely helpful in both pain control and the recovery process. Here's how compression stockings work from their perspective:

1. Reduces swelling and inflammation

Achilles tendonitis can lead to inflammation around the tendon, especially after activities such as walking, running or standing for long periods of time. Achilles tendon compression sleeve will provide gentle compression, which helps to increase blood circulation, which in turn reduces swelling, severity and fluid buildup around the affected area.

2. Provide support and reduce pressure

During activities, ankles are under a lot of pressure. They will fit snugly against the foot, helping to minimize unwanted movement, which in turn prevents extra stress on the tendons.

3. Relieving pain and discomfort

Many patients mention that one of the most noticeable effects they can feel is pain control. Compression stockings create a sense of support that can alleviate the discomfort often associated with tendonitis. While it doesn't completely relieve pain, it can make the tendon feel less sensitive, especially during activity.

4. Prevents the injury from deepening

Compression ankle sleeves will slightly limit the range of motion, preventing the tendon from being overstretched or strained during activity. Client David talks about how “this extra layer of protection is especially useful when I do light exercise or walk around more than usual.”
