Compression Stockings in Lafayette, Louisiana (LA)

Compression stockings are used to support the muscles of the calf in circulating blood and lymph fluid through the legs. These stockings or hose are usually made of elastic or rubber fibers that aid in compressing the leg.

Compression stockings have a graduated compression with maximum compression at the ankle and decreasing up the leg.  There are different types of compression available in these stockings, so be sure to check with your doctor about which level of compression would be best for you.

About Vein Center of Louisiana

At Vein Center Louisiana, a Lafayette varicose veins center, patients are treated with a variety of vascular treatment options which help to remove spider veins and varicose veins, both of which can interfere with proper vascular function. Individuals suffering with vascular disease often note discomfort, itching in the area, or a heaviness in the area. Patients also notice the dysfunctional vein as it often becomes readily visible beneath the skin appearing distorted and enlarged.

At Vein Centers of Louisiana, Dr. James Ingram consults with each patient to personally ensure that questions are answered and that a satisfactory and effective treatment plan is negotiated. Patients are treated with injection-based treatments and laser-based treatments, both of which are non-invasive and highly effective options for a number of different vascular concerns. Patients are treated with ultrasound guided treatments as well, which helps to enhance accuracy and effectiveness of treatments.
