Should I wear compression socks or compression stockings while working out before and after surgery?

honestidia
I am 27 year old who is soon to get treatment for my various veins, i have quit working out for sometime. However since reading up on venous reflux (insufficiency) i want to start working out again, possibly before surgery but definitely after, should i wear compression socks or compression stockings?
