This invention is an improved support garment (10) for therapeutic compression of a swollen limb. An elastic sock (12) includes a lengthwise slit (26) intermediate the top and bottom, an inelastic pouch bridging the slit for slidably receiving a flat compliant plastic insert (32), and a slide fastener (28) for opening and closing the slit. Sufficient slack in the pouch allows the fastener to close with the insert in place. |
