[@ibienembano4987]

I tripped over the staircase last night. I thought I was lucky to escape without a scratch. But I woke up with pain and a swollen feet. I searched and did this exercises with you and by the time I was done the swelling was visibly reduced and pain almost insignificant. Incredible. Are you amazing or what?

Dear Doctor Jo, thank you sooooo much! I had horrible pains in my leg and your advice was very simple to put into practice. With horrible pains we cannot do much.

God bless you beautiful, intelligent and helpful young lady!!!!

I was diagnosed with venous insufficiency (post ankle break and dislocation) and have neuropathy in my toes. Since I can't take the constriction, I use a toe-less compression sock on the affected leg, with a sock or stocking over it, year round. It took some getting used to initially, but now, I'm fine. As you stated, when I wear it, at the end of the day there's no swelling.

[@sophieockerman4345]

as someone with circulation issues this is an amazing help

[@user-vi1rw2hr9s]

Thank you for these! I’m dealing with the aftermath of a tibia and fibula clean break and I am cast-less. My orthopaedic surgeon told me lots of elevation and ankle circles to hopefully strengthen my muscles to walk again w/o boot or crutches

[@AskDoctorJo]

You're welcome! Good luck.

I am dealing with a torn quad . 2 tendons. It tore all the way threw. Because of all the falls i had and the Dr not believing me or considering soft tissue exams. What am I facing besides alot of pain

Unfortunately, I don't know since I can't evaluate you. If you can go see a physical therapist for an evaluation, that would be the best option.

Thanks, Dr. Jo. Can you discuss removing compression socks. I don’t wear my socks as often as I should because I have problem removing them because of arthritis in the joints.
