T.E.D. Anti-Embolism Stockings

These are exactly what the hospital gave me to wear and take home. I thought I would have trouble getting on, but no trouble at all. And, there is no pain below my knees like some support hose give you. Very comfortable like I donate them on. No exaggerations!!

After being discharged from hospital after knee revision surgery, my post-op instructions were to continue to wear the T.E.D. anti-embolism stockings placed on me prior to surgery - on both legs for 2 weeks, then on the operative leg for 2 more weeks - 24/7. Well, that’s kinda difficult with only one pair! So I ordered these immediately upon discharge to be delivered the next day. They arrived on time so that I could remove the hospital-issued pair. The following day I washed both pair at the same time. I could not believe how badly the hospital pair unraveled, with stringy threads wrapped around the entire small load of white socks & underclothes. Over the next week, this pair held up through repeated wearing and washings. The hospital ones have practically disintegrated. I ordered a second pair to get me through the last 2 weeks. This is my second purchase of these stockings in a week. I have had several knee surgeries over the past 15 years. With full knee replacements, I was issued thigh length COVIDIEN brand stockings. I still use them whenever I travel by airplane. They have remained in good condition over the years. Accordingly, I would strongly definitely recommend these T.E.D. Anti-Embolism Stockings, sold by Kendall, manufactured by Covidien. My recent pair from the hospital are not Covidien like all of my others and it was evident after 3 days wearing in bed and just 1 wash.

I needed this after knee replacement surgery. I was disappointed to NOT find a choice for size, only saw LARGE. It was too big and I have to roll down the top and cut off the toe. I ordered a second pair, thinking I may have erred. Still the same. Will be returning those.

Fit my size 14 feet OK. They're a pain to get on/off, but that seems inevitable (especially with feet my size).

The holes in the toes make them hard to fit properly. Still good quality. I’d try to find some with toes.

I bought these for long flights and long days walking around. These are the 3rd pair I bought - the first 2 wouldn't fit over my thick calves. These were no problem to get on, or to keep on for that matter. If you don't care about a cute design, these are a good price and a good fit.

Absolute best compression sock that has the right amount of graduation and pressure in different areas of the sock. I tried at least 5 other brands and these are perfect. I use them with shoes by tucking the open-toe part under my toes. I have flown in them and they worked the way I needed to prevent more swelling. I stayed away from the medical ones for every day use, but wish I had purchased these at the beginning of my injury. Of all the kinds I tried, they're the most comfortable.

These are the same type of T.E.D. stockings issued in hospitals. High quality, comfortable and offered at reasonable price.
