ARM SLEEVES

Compression sleeves are elastic in nature and cover the shoulders, biceps, elbows, and a part of the forearms.  Compression sleeves attach in the back with a durable Velcro closure or can simply detach and are worn individually.  They are very effective during the recovery of arm surgery (brachioplasty) and increase quality of life for burn patients and those suffering lymph edema.  It is very important to get the sizing right on compression sleeves, as the elastic trim can rub the underarm area, creating discomfort, if the sleeve is too small.  A compression vest with sleeves is also effective under these same conditions.
