Compression socks...preworkout?

A new development in my running has been the need for compression socks.  After an episode of inflammation (or something?) of a vein in my leg that sent me to the urgent care and ER, I have decided that compression socks are medically necessary for me.

However, putting these on is a workout in itself.  They have to be snug, of course, in order to do their job.  So that makes the job of putting them on so much harder.  First you have to get the toes in the right place, then wiggle the sock on, making sure that it's not twisted.  If it is, that's another struggle.  Then pull them up into place over the sore calf...fun.  Then once they're on one leg you get to start all over again with the other one!  Gee.  But, if this will prevent another painful episode of vein inflammation, I will struggle on.  #thestruggleisreal #compressionsocks #injini #preworkout #veininflammation
