Results started to show in just a couple of days.
My mom has edema in the legs for years. She has tried the stockings but they are too tight, keeping her legs raised she wasn’t consistent, lower salt intake makes food even less palatable. Medication hasn’t been successful in controlling it so she tried these boots. After 2-3 days it was obvious the boots were helping. The “pillow” on top of her foot was much smaller and her calves looked smaller. She said she passed more urine than usual and this wasn’t related to the diuretic. The boot actually pushes the fluid out of the tissue and into the bloodstream and out. Because she’s on Coumadin the chances of a blood clot were much lower and the doctor agreed it was worth the risk. She uses the boot at the lowest pressure setting.
