After wearing Tommie Copper knee sleeve for a week, the swelling went down and the pain became tolerable.

I feel like it does a bit, it certainly helps. But not 100% if you lose a bud from the ear. Good luck.

no. MY wife uses them as compression socks for calf and ankle swelling. They work fine.

It will probably help take some of the stress off of it but it is meant for groin and inner thigh injuries. If you decide to buy it and give it a try let me know how it works for you. I had a really bad groin injury and this help me be able to walk and jog a little bit. Good luck

It will support the knee joint and help with swelling - but don't forget to strengthen your quads! Simple exercises like the ones in "Treat Your Own Knee Arthritis" can give a knee much stability as well.

Hello Howard. I am not a physician, nor am I a professional physical therapy person. Therefore, I strongly suggest you discuss the swollen ankles problem with your doctor. He/she can make recommendations. I pray for your well-being.

No. It resolves Hemrrroid flare ups (when the area swells causing pain). Drinking lots of water and eating plenty of fiber will decrease chance of getting more Hemorrhoids

I don't suffer from extreme puffiness, but I've been using the product for a few weeks now and what inflammation I had was greatly reduced by this product. I would say, yes, it does work for that.

I don't know if it would help 100% since you feel it in your arms too, but this has helped a lot on my wrists. I do have pain in my arms when I type and I bought this: BandIT Therapeutic Forearm Band. Check the description out.

Yes! Sprains, bruises, sore muscles, cracked ribs, whatever. I haven't yet found anything that DMSO doesn't help. It reduces pain, swelling and inflammation.

These would NOT be your best bet. These are designed to last about 20 minutes to help reduce swelling from an injury. They are GREAT for that. You need the ice packs filled with gel that you freeze and remain cold for many hours. Hope this helps. Joe

The bauerfreind website gives the measurements above and below the knee. The measurements are right on for each size. It is not a tight fit so it should work for a mild degree of swelling. If u have a lot of swelling u might need one size larger

It could help. I bought one for my wife who had a sore on her bottom and it helped take the pressure off the sensitive area. Since pain is pain anything that helps eliminate some pain may help a lot.

It may help. It's slight pressure, not firm, so you may find sleeves with more compression to be of greater help. I have a similar forearm issue and alternate between this sleeve to wear on "good" days and a thicker, tighter one when my arm is hurting.

I don't really know if it will help your particular situation. I know that when I'm suffering from knee strain, it makes my knee feel snug and warm, which seems to lessen the discomfort over time. It's not a miracle cure, but it helps. Good luck to you!
