A member asked:
Confused with gp's?foot op - due to broken bone, then wore a cast, but after diagnosed with clot in sural vein. do i wear a cast or compression hose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If the broken bone is healed then a compression hose would be of great benefit. When you are not on your feet, elevate your legs. Discuss your activity level with your doctor.
