Melody L, I had something that sounds similar during a surgery recovery. They were on me to prevent DVT, but also helped with the edema. Or so they said. I never noticed anything different. Again, a pain in the patootie to get on and off.
They are called foot pump slippers which help prevent DVT. They felt wonderful after my surgery.
