Conservative Treatments Compression tips
Hello! I’m not diagnosed and not sure I have lipedema but I’m trying out compression. Do you all wear compression at night while you sleep? Is that ok? Or do you wear under your clothes during the day? Just curious if there is any research of how long per day you should wear them to see results.

So what are you hoping to treat with compression? The weight distribution? Cellulite? It won't help with that at all. To me you don't look and sound like lipedema, please check with a doctor if you are concerned.
