POWERLIX Legs Orthopedic Brace Compression Support Sleeve (Pair) for Swelling, Sprain, Plantar Fasciitis, Arthritis, Tendinitis

Works well
These works well. I’ve tried so many ankle and food braces it’s ridiculous. These are very comfortable, don’t dig into my skin and seem to brace my ankle and my plantar fasciitis well. I have been really straining my ankles because of my heel issues so these help a lot. I’d definitely recommend. They’re not hot to wear all day and fit perfect.

These are true to size; work well
I injured my Achilles tendon and was advised to use a compression sock. Often items from Amazon are often too small for me, especially those made in other countries, but these fit according to the manufacturer’s size chart. I wear a women’s size 10 shoe. At first, I was worried the fit was too snug, but the next day my swelling had gone down a little and the sock fit well. I wore it under some running shoes and it was comfortable enough. My ankle and heel are healing well. Because this is more of a compression sock than a brace. The band is narrow around the ankle; it causes a mark on my leg–I think it should be wider to not restrict blood and lymph flow. My ankles are fairly slim. The materials are of good quality and have not loosened or stretched out despite multiple wearings. This is better, I should add, than a more expensive brace I bought for the same purpose, which ran very small and was designed poorly.

I am a size 12 extra wide men’s foot = extra large size PowerLix Ankle Brace Compression Support Sleeve. I ordered both a Large size and an Extra Large size. Comes with a pair of them to each box. The Extra large was really tight and all at first but loosened up perfectly for my ankle, still using the first extra large a month later. I tired the large size on, not much smaller than the extra large but absolutely tighter, way tighter, too tight for my feet. So I gave those away to another in need.This PowerLix Ankle Brace Compression Support Sleeve solves much of my severely swollen ankle quickly (but sadly not permanently) due to a very serious motor vehicle collision. At least I found a way to greatly reduce ankle swelling. And all while most doctors don’t have a clue or don’t give a damn. Whatever!Only this ankle compression sleeve reduces significantly and efficiently both my injured ankle swelling and the associated calf swelling too, when/if it’s allowed to get that bad by walking or standing too much for a chronically injured ankle of mine.The compression sock that my primary care provider advised cannot and didn’t do what this higher quality ankle compression sleeve does. This thing is a real winner for swelling and it solves the out of control swelling of the ankle, and my associated calf swelling because of the ankle swelling.As for “an ankle brace”? It’s not a good replacement for any brace or boot/cast. But if you have swelling it will help there a lot, or did for me, and yea it does offer a bit of support and comfort for a very tender foot when wearing it so it helps there a bit too, as a somewhat lame brace of sorts.But realize it wont give enough “support” for a unstable ankles, or at least not for my seriously unstable ankle that is much more at home in the boot/cast where I clamp down so that the ankle is fully supported and guarded from twists and torques of the ankle. Only a boot/cast or ankle brace can suffice for that.THIS IS THE ONE TO TRY and the quality is top notch just like they advertize!

Relieves pain of swollen ankle
I don’t write many reviews but this product is worth it! I have an ankle that swells during the day as I sit at my desk. The doctor says it is venous insufficiency. By evening it would get pretty painful. I got these 2 ankle braces and put one on when my ankle was swollen and within a short time, the pain subsided and stayed away. It made the swelling go down in a couple hours. I can put it on in the morning and the ankle does not swell. They stay up on the leg very well. I wear a women’s size 9 shoe and according to the instructions I measured the circumference of my ankle/heel and ordered the appropriate size Large. It went on snug and stayed that way, very comfortable. I don’t wear socks over or under it, just put it on and slide my foot in my shoe. I think it would be a great help for air travel also. I think that because the toes are out, it keeps it from being too hot and it doesn’t make my toes swell either. So happy to find a non-drug method to relieve pain!

Bought a pair for my husband. He says the socks are a great support for his ankle during his workouts

I just started marathon few days ago and I have ankle pain. Since I put this on I have no pain when I do marathon . Thank you so much
