How long do you want to ignore this user?
long story short had cancer in my early 20's and had all the lymph nodes removed from one of my groins. Swelling is persistent and I wear a compression stocking daily which helps with the pain and swelling.

However, now that I am getting closer to 40 I've noticed pain is starting to happen more frequent and faster.

I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions on those massging type of sleeve devices you can buy similar to the one I linked below? Curious if something like this would be a good option to help with pain, and reduce swelling so that my leg doesn't get any worse? Also, any other suggestions or tips are appreciated. Thanks

Can't comment on this specific device. But a company called Tactile Medical makes similar pneumatic compression devices called FlexiTouch for lymphedema that most people get really good results with. You would have to go through a doctor and get an order/referral, but should be covered by insurance that way as well.
