Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effects of regular socks versus compression stockings on lower-leg muscle fatigue, edema, and discomfort among security guards who stand for long periods.
- Forty male security guards participated, being divided into control and intervention groups to assess muscle strength and discomfort before and after a 12-hour shift.
- Results showed that those wearing regular socks experienced significant lower-leg issues, while those in compression stockings reported no significant negative effects, indicating that compression stockings may help alleviate problems caused by prolonged standing.
