    Compression Sleeve – 【奥】压力袖套
     
    A compression sleeve is a stretchy elasticized garment that is custom-fitted to the arm, and helps with pain and swelling caused by arm lymphedema. Sometimes a compression sleeve is referred to as a compression garment, compression arm sleeve, lymphedema sleeve or a pressure sleeve. A compression sleeve may be worn during exercise, when traveling by air, or when one needs to help managing lymphedema.
