What is vasopneumatic compression?

Vasopneumatic compression uses an inflatable sleeve that rhythmically compresses and releases around a limb, often combined with cold therapy. This pumping action helps move excess fluid out of the injured area to alleviate edema, while the cold calms pain and inflammation. It is especially helpful after surgery or acute injuries, when swelling limits motion and slows recovery.
