@akafaceUS I’ve had this condition for almost 35 years and the only thing I’ve ever had to do is wear compression stockings to push the blood back up to the heart. I’m 83 and in good health.

#CPR is easy .30 chest compressions followed by 2 breaths. Continue till the person wakes up or medical team arrives or patient reaches hospital. Learn CPR. Save lives. #MedTwitter

Compression socks Mr. President. They help my mom tremendously.
