A compression garment includes fluid-impermeable bladder layers defining an inflatable bladder. A ventilator is at least partially disposed on an inward side of the inflatable bladder. The ventilator at least partially defines at least one passage between the wearers skin and the inward side of the bladder and in fluid communication with atmospheric air at a location outside of the compression garment when the compression garment is worn on the wearers body part. The ventilator is flexible to collapse the at least one passage under the force of inflation of the bladder and to resiliently expand the at least one passage upon deflation of the bladder. The collapse of the at least one passage expels air from the at least one passage to the atmospheric air and the expansion of the at least one passage draws the atmospheric air into the at least one passage.
