mediven® toe caps

Oedema therapy: Variety – right down to the tips of your feet 

mediven 550 toe cap

Toe caps: Greater fitting variety and user comfort

During lymphological treatment with flat knit compression stockings, the toes are often not taken into account. However, 63 per cent of all lymphoedema patients suffer from a swelling of the back of the foot.

medi offers various solutions for patient-specific compression therapy and covers this particular need with mediven toe caps. In doing so, patients with lymphoedema in the toes (Stemmer positive) and on the dorsum of the foot benefit from an individual form of therapy.  

Here you can see an extract of our toe cap variety on offer. Ask your medical supply store for advice on further options. The specialist will be happy to help you.  

A two-compression class difference in one fitting – with fully-knitted toe caps

Toe caps are available for the following medi flat knit products
