I have just started wearing a Compression Sleeve on my left arm & hand and compression socks up to the knee on both feet. The left arm swells from Lymphaderma and the feet from Peripheral Neuropathy.
Neither, I wear Dickies. No circulation problems, no foot problems other than a corn or two that I’ve had to work on. Matter of fact, after about a month in country (Vietnam) I didn’t wear socks or drawers at all and continued that until around 1980. In the Nam, my feet (and other things) dried quicker without the added material and I just got used to not wearing them way into civilian life.
Lon, how did you get lymphedema? Have you had lymph nodes removed? Sorry you are having to deal with that.
