Dr. Segal's Diabetic Socks Purple Stripes
Diabetes is already hard enough to deal with on its own. Even with a clean and controlled diet and the right medication, complications related to diabetes can seemingly come out of no-where. When those complicated situations arise, one of the more common symptoms is diabetic foot. This condition quite literally causes a lack of blood to the foot, worsening symptoms of gout and potentially causing ulcers on top of the skin.
As a preventative measure, a surgeon named Dr. Segal compiled data on his patients' leg and foot problems to create general use foot care products for everyone. Namely, the brand is known for compression socks, stockings, and sleeves that are guaranteed to boost circulation and take away unwanted symptoms.
By delivering warmth without constriction, diabetic socks help to increase blood flow. It's critical not to constrict the blood vessels in the feet since diabetes produces impaired circulation.

- Flat-felled Seam: Seamless construction prevents rubbing & blisters

Diabetic Socks Benefits
- Boosts Circulation: A proper pair of compression socks is a proven way to boost circulation! While you would think that putting pressure on something might squeeze blood out, it actually keeps blood in. The aforementioned pressure helps align the veins in legs and feet, almost like a guide on the branch of a growing tree. By regularly stimulating the vein walls, they strengthen as they re-align themselves into an optimal position.
- Increases Energy:When circulation decreases, so do your energy. Whether you’re sitting down or standing in one place for hours on end, an immediate effect can be a decrease in circulation. Within as little as an hour, of little-to-no movement, the circulation in affected areas can be slowed by up to 50%. Unfortunately, this slowing in circulation means our bodies have to work twice as hard to pump blood from our feet or legs and upward. Thankfully, compression socks relieve the pressure of trapped or slowed blood flow when it occurs. In the best-case scenario, the right pair of socks can help reduce the overall pressure put on your circulatory system. This gives your entire body a well-deserved break, increases your energy, and prevents the symptoms of diabetic foot.
Who Can Benefit from Diabetic Compression Socks
Through a means of gentle compression and added warmth, these diabetic socks help increase blood flow and reduce the signs and symptoms of diabetic foot. If you’re diabetic, it’s incredibly important that you use a diabetes sock or stalking, as other products may compress the foot and reduce blood flow.
These socks have a few features that set them aside from other compression socks or stockings. First and foremost, the bottom of the sock is padded, providing additional relief to those who deal with neuropathy. Additionally, these socks are made of Hydrocool, moisture-wicking material, keeping your feet comfortable, and preventing the growth and buildup of bacteria and fungus. Thanks to the design and material, these socks are best for any diabetic patient.
Not diabetic and also dealing with poor foot circulation? No problem! The Dr. Segal diabetic socks can still be utilized as a general-use compression sock. No matter who you are, there’s a fit for you.
