Koprez Unisex Ankle Compression Sleeve, Extra Large, Blue, Single

Good

Does what it says on the box relieves pressure on the foot and the pain is much lessened

Wrong size and I can’t find a way to say that

I’ve been wearing this sleeve daily for about a week. It gets a little uncomfortable by the end of the day, but after trying everything only to continue feeling foot pain, I’ll take it! This sleeve has helped my foot so much! For the first time in months, I got up this morning with almost no foot pain at all! It used to hurt so bad to stand for the first time in the morning and it barely hurt at all this morning! I’m a believer! If you’ve tried everything, try this next! The compression is great. I like the color too. Black and blue isn’t super flashy. You can also put a sock on over the top if needed, but it’s been warm out so I haven’t been. It seemed kind of expensive at first, but it’s a good quality sleeve and I wish I had tried this first! My husband had me buy him one too and he’s enjoying his as well!

My normal routine includes a 4-5 mile walk every morning, pickleball 5x per week, and golf when I can. PF symptoms showed up suddenly about two months ago – suddenly it hurt too much to walk very far and pickleball was excruciating. It affected both feet, but the pain in my right foot was significantly worse. In spite of all the products that promise fast relief, I learned that managing PF is a multi-step process. Here's what worked for me – in order of implementation: - I threw away five pairs of worn-out running shoes and started wearing my newest pair all the time. - I quit going barefoot and now wear shoes all the time, even inside the house. - I quite wearing dress shoes or sandals (easy for me since I’m retired). - I started stretching my heels/calves multiple times per day, with and without a step. - I rolled my foot over a frozen water bottle or a small hard plastic ball with spikes on it. The plastic ball seems to work better, and soon I was using it several times per day. - I bought three different pairs of PF insoles so I could use them all the time. I couldn’t really tell any difference between the three brands I tried, but I think the ones with deep heel cups (WalkHero and ValSole) are better, and those are the two I use most of the time. - I bought SB Sox and now wear them on both feet during all waking hours. - I tried the Koprez Sleeve, but initially found that it was uncomfortable to wear all the time. I tried wearing it on a walk, but it actually became more painful after about ¼ mile. I later realized I had been doing the straps wrong. When I followed directions, the Koprez sleeve was comfortable for walking and helped me to walk pain free, even on tough days. I also tried wearing it for pickleball, and it was wonderful. The Koprez Sleeve allows me to keep playing pickleball. - I tried foam rolling my calves. I think it helped, but it was really hard on my arms. So I quit. - I bought the Vibit, hoping that I could use it on my calves as well as my feet. It vibrated as advertised, but it was actually harder to use than a foam roller and it didn’t seem more effective. It felt good on my feet but I couldn’t tell if it helped or not. Following the directions requires 15 minutes per foot dedicated to using the massager (no multi-tasking is possible). I still use it occasionally if I want a few extra minutes without sitting down with the Tisscare, but I don’t think this purchase helped with the PF. I have also used the Vibit for other things (IT band, back, arms), and it offers a nice massage. - I started using a Tisscare foot massager with heat that we already owned. It seemed to help a lot, and it was easy to use as I could just sit there and let the massager do the work on both feet at the same time while I read or used my phone. I’m still using it 2-3x per day for 20 minutes. Very much worth the money and I will buy it again if it quits working. Results: - It took about four weeks to research, purchase, and start using all the products listed above. During that first four weeks, I quit my morning walks and cut back on pickleball (I could not play two days in a row). Pain was intense, especially after pickleball or at the end of the day. - Within a couple weeks, the morning pain was better, mostly because I stretched and rolled 2-3 times during the night (I wake up anyway). - After putting everything into place (about four weeks), the morning pain was pretty much gone and I started walking two miles in the morning. I still had pain if I played pickleball – and the pain continued for the rest of the day. - After six weeks, I was able to increase the morning walks to my normal 4-5 miles most days and experienced only minimal pain with pickleball. - It’s been about eight weeks, and I’m still continuing to work on it. Pain is minimal and I’m able to walk 5+ miles and play pickleball!
