Zusammenfassung:	A therapeutic stocking for mild venous disease of the leg comprises a boot portion for covering a substantial portion of the leg, the said boot portion having an ankle portion for exerting a substantial compressive pressure against the region of the ankle, a calf portion for exerting a compressive pressure in the range of 49% to 69% of the ankle pressure in the region of the calf, and a thigh portion for exerting a compressive pressure in the range of 35% to 55% of the ankle pressure in the region of the mid-thigh. Optionally a foot portion may exert a compressive pressure in the range of 53% to 83% of the ankle pressure. Illustrative pressures are, ankle 20-24 mm Hg, calf 11.8-14.0 mm Hg, mid-thigh 8.5-11.0 mm Hg, and foot 12.7- 16.6 mm Hg.
