Making masah on medical socks

Q: A person has a medical condition where water fills in his legs. He has to wear a stocking/sock that is very tight. This sock helps mitigate the condition. It is very difficult to take off and put on the sock.

In this situation, will it be permissible to make masah on these socks in wudhu?

A: Yes.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
