my mom had some leg problems years back with sweling and stuff and she had to wear these heavy control hose. i can't remember what they were called but it was a Legg's product i think. we got them at wal-Mart i can remember they were REALLY tight and hard ot get on but what ever they were supposed to do they did. check with your doctor though if you haven't already because if you have circulation problems or somthing it could make matters worse for you!

With all due respect. I think you should be careful. Nylon does not allow the skin to breath. I do not see where this will help with swelling. You need to see a doctor and check with him. THere are reasons for swelling and this could be a health problem

It sounds like you could have edema or lymphedema. Pantyhose won't help long term but compression garments will. In the source below is a link to webmd.com about lymphedema & the causes.

You'll have to get a doctor's prescription for that because your support hose will probably have to be custom made.
I don't think L'eggs nor Hanes has full support hose for your weight.
