I thought the compression stockings were to avoid inflammation and improve the blood return

I definitely have less leg swelling on flights when I wear them.

I have the surgical one that squeezes off and on. Would those work on a long flight?

My MIL uses them to reduce her occurrences of orthostatic hypotension.

So totally useless? I will still wear them even on shorter flights of 4-5 hours as they make my legs less restless.

So having had a serious PE, with no genetic markers found as aggravator, are there any other preventative actions someone can take other than hydration and mobility?

Thank you for this info!! So important! I’ve seen compression socks applied to post-surgery patients. Do you feel this is unnecessary as well?

Is it true that those with chronic venous insufficiency need to avoid saunas because they trigger blood clots?

Tracy Cope511 :
So why do they use them on patients when having surgery?

Why not take a baby aspirin or some extra vitamin e before a long flight? Wouldn’t that help?

Interesting.. would love to hear your thoughts on FVL on blood thinners and treatment for anemia - and high cholesterol. I’m feel like I’m on a hamster wheel going nowhere trying to figure out the correct approach for treatment. My PCP and hematologist and indifferent.

While they don't prevent recurrence, they are still widely used for symptom management—they are excellent at reducing the immediate pain and swelling of an active or recent clot.
