My elderly monther was recently in the hospital. While there, they put these cuffs on her legs that inflated and deflated. I guess they are used to help leg circulation in bed ridden patients. My mother who is a diabetic has terrible leg pain, but these cuffs really helped. The problem is I don’t know where to buy them. I have tried a couple of the medical supply retailers in my area, but they don’t carry them. Any help would be appreciated.
