Steffen Christian Ekkehard SchmidtStefan SellAlexander WollPublished in: Interactive journal of medical research (2022)
Prolonged gaming and streaming are serious risk factors for diseases associated with water retention in the legs, and these risks can be measured by bioelectrical impedance and reduced by wearing compression stockings. We conclude that these findings should be discussed and replicated in larger studies and that there is a considerably large market for compression stockings among gamers and live streamers.
