I tried compression socks on a doctor's advice, and they cut off my circulation, so I never wore them again. You would be helped by either a tub bath or a foot bath with epsom salts added to the water, and then putting your feet up in a recliner, or on a hassock for a while. Keep a throw blanket handy, as you might fall asleep once you get your feet up.
