@rozio If you are talking about the ankle socks, I have those and while they help with the swelling in my feet, yes they do cut into the ankles. I would like to wear knee highs but can't pull them up due to my arthritis. With the short socks, I can at least get shoes on again.
@grandma2pkmh The Tommy Copper ones are light compression so you may be able to pull them up with a sock helper like below. I just searched for compression sock helper on Amazon. The first is $10.99 and called Vive Sock Aid and is an Amazon Choice product with 682 4.3 stars.


Jobst 110913 in a different style than the first and is $24.54.
There are many styles to choose from. I get mild compression socks at WalMart called MedPeds or another brand I can't think of. The MedPed ones are cheaper and nylon mostly. They are thinner and good trouser socks. I also get the other brand for $14 or so for moderate compression so they are harder to put on but not hard for this overweight nearly 40-year-old. I also ordered a pack from Amazon by CharmKing for 7 pairs of 15-20mmHg in all black, but they do come in many colors for around $20. They are great and come above my large calves.
