Lymphedema is a chronic condition that occurs when lymphatic fluid builds up in the body’s tissues, usually in the arms or legs. This persistent swelling can make even simple activities uncomfortable, affect mobility, and lower quality of life. While there is no complete cure, one of the most trusted and effective ways to manage lymphedema is through graduated compression therapy.
At Sorgen, we specialize in compression solutions that are both clinically effective and comfortable to wear every day. Our Class 2 medical compression stockings (23–32 mmHg) are designed to deliver accurate therapeutic pressure while meeting international quality standards.
Why Graduated Compression Works
Graduated compression stockings apply the highest pressure at the ankle, gradually decreasing as they move up the leg. This pressure gradient supports the body’s natural pumping mechanism, helping blood and lymph fluid move upward rather than pooling in the lower limbs.
For people living with lymphedema, this gentle but firm external support helps reduce swelling, ease heaviness, and prevent further complications like infections or venous ulcers. By improving circulation, compression stockings not only relieve physical symptoms but also enhance daily comfort and mobility.
Benefits of Compression Therapy in Lymphedema
Using medical-grade stockings like Sorgen’s Class 2 range can make a noticeable difference in day-to-day life. The key benefits include:
-
Improved circulation – Assists blood and lymph flow, preventing fluid buildup.
-
Reduced edema (swelling) – Controls fluid retention in the legs.
-
Relief from pain and heaviness – Reduces tired, aching sensations in the legs.
-
DVT prevention – Lowers risk of deep vein thrombosis in at-risk individuals.
-
Better mobility – Keeps legs lighter, making movement easier.
-
Enhanced quality of life – Less discomfort means more freedom to enjoy daily activities.

Wearing Sorgen in Daily Life
One of the challenges patients often face is finding compression stockings that can be worn comfortably throughout the day. Sorgen stockings are designed with this in mind—they fit snugly without feeling overly tight, remain secure during movement, and blend seamlessly with daily routines whether at work, at home, or outdoors.
This ease of use encourages regular wear, which is essential for effective lymphedema management. Unlike occasional treatments, compression therapy works best when practiced consistently.
A Holistic Approach to Lymphedema
While compression therapy is central, it works best as part of a comprehensive care plan. Patients are often advised to combine stockings with:
-
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) to stimulate lymph flow.
-
Gentle exercise such as walking, swimming, or yoga to activate circulation.
-
Proper skincare to prevent infections that lymphedema patients are more prone to.
-
Regular medical checkups to monitor progress and adjust therapy when needed.
Sorgen stockings are made to support these broader care strategies, acting as a reliable, everyday foundation for better health.
