    I've not used them myself, but have heard they work wonders.

    where is the pain? look up how to tape them on runnersworld, thats what I did and it helps.

    I have compression socks and any research i have found only indicates that they help MUSCLES and only if youre not an "elite" athlete, whatever that maybe.... I used them some, but they didnt put enough pressure on my splits to help any. I reccomend looking up how to tape em.
