QUESTION AND ANSWER

Are knee high compression stockings ok for a male working on concrete?

Compression hose are good for anyone who spends a lot of time on their feet. If he doesn't have venous insufficiency, knee highs are fine. If he has venous insufficiency then knee high hose can sometimes make it worse because it makes the return of blood flow worse. Thigh highs would be better in that situation.
