I was wondering if anybody would know what kind of socks I could use for my husband?
He had cirrhosis of the liver and his legs swell really bad, all socks we have tries leave really bad indents and make his legs very sore, if anybody has any they could suggest I would really appreciate it
TIA

On hospital discharge I had to do that. Thankfully with diuretics the swelling reduced. Hopefully that will happen for your husband. Salt intake should also be restricted.
My husband has enormous calves and struggles with socks in general. He buys diabetic socks and they work well for him. I think they come from Amazon, and I also think they are made from bamboo. The ones he has go part way up the calf and are black with a grey band at the top. They are not particularly hard wearing but in all other respects they are excellent so he keeps buying them.
