What is the difference between compression stockings of class 1 and 2?

Compression stockings are categorized into different classes based on the level of compression they provide. Class 1 stockings typically offer a compression of 18 to 21 mmHg, making them suitable for preventive measures, mild swelling, and discomfort. They are often recommended for individuals who spend long periods sitting or standing.

Class 2 stockings provide a higher compression level ranging from 23 to 32 mmHg. This class is ideal for moderate to severe venous conditions, such as varicose veins or post-operative recovery. Using the appropriate class of compression stockings is essential for maximizing benefits and ensuring comfort.
