The causes of the development of the diseaseVaricosis can develop under the influence of many factors from the outside. Of course, it all depends on the lifestyle of a person. However, there are a number of predisposing risk factors that increase the probability of varicose veins. Such factors are a hereditary predisposition, alteration of hormonal balance, a nervous system disease, an inactive lifestyle, physical overload, flat feet, high theses shoes. 
Hereditary predisposition-Unfortunately, close relatives suffered from this disease, that is to say the probability that it is transmitted to you, so often, this is due to the hereditary weakness of the connective tissue or a defect in venous valves. In this case, it is necessary to remember the prevention of varicose veins.Hormonal imbalance - Constant fluctuations in the level of hormones are the most inherent in women and, therefore, according to statistics, they are more sensitive to varicose veins. Similar fluctuations are observed throughout the menstrual cycle, during pregnancy and during menopause. The use of hormonal drugs (for example, contraceptives) also affects. Female hormones considerably affect the elasticity of the walls of blood vessels.Diseases of the nervous system, frequent stress, depressive conditions - it is known that it is the nervous system that regulates the venous tone. Therefore, all the pathologies associated with it can affect the state of the veins.Inflammatory process in the basin - they often disturb the female sex. Due to them, the level of hormones can be considerably disturbed.A sedentary lifestyle with extension seated on the computer, for example, the veins of the legs are in a hurry, the flow of the blood is disturbed. Due to the stagnation of blood, the vascular walls extend and spread out. To date, even the "computer varices" are distinguished, so often it has been found. Physical overloads - Excessive physical activity does not affect the ships either. Heavy lifting, constant walking increase the load on the feet and, therefore, on the veins.Flat feet - In one way or another, it is a deformation of the foot, and it also has a certain effect on the vessels of the lower limbs.The Constitution is the big people and especially with strong growth are very subject to varicose veins in the future.Wearing high heels, it is dangerous for women, because when you walk on high heels and not particularly comfortable, the load on the lower limbs improves considerably.Clinical manifestations of varicose veinsSymptoms of the disease appear gradually, but they progress regularly, in particular in the absence of appropriate treatment. It all starts with the appearance of small vascular nets and stars on the legs, the tuangiectasia if called. They do not cause much discomfort, but already with these demonstrations, it is necessary to request a consultation from a doctor.In the future, swelling on the legs that appear after a prolonged walk and most often in the evening are starting to disturb. In the morning, they spend alone. It is the first signal that the function of the deep veins which returns blood to the heart is altered.Over time, patients are starting to complain about convulsions in their legs, their numbness, especially at night and in the morning. If the treatment has not been started at these steps, then the venous nodules will appear on the skin, the veins will be visible, bluish or even closer to the red color, they will be painful to palpation. The skin of the lower limbs will begin to change gradually. It will become dense to the touch, dry, will begin to take off and darken. During walking, the serious muscles will be disturbed. And to the places of the appearance of venous knots, serious itching will be felt. The involuntary contractions of the calf muscles at night can also occur.Diagnosis and complications of varicose veinsThe diagnosis of the disease is necessary as soon as possible. But it all depends on the patient to go to the hospital.In the diagnosis, they are based on complaints, external manifestations on the legs, the patient's lifestyle, his bad habits, his physique, the presence of varicose veins in parents, brothers, sisters.To confirm the diagnosis, additional instrumental exam methods are prescribed.Such methods are:Ultrasound examination of the veins (ultrasound) - It is also known as the doppleography of the veins of the lower limbs. It allows you to assess the structure of the veins, their cross-country capacity, their speed and their direction of blood flow, the presence of thrombotic formations, the expansion of blood vessels, the presence of all tumors. Contrast, or phlébography (contrast - it is carried out by introducing a contrast material in the vessels. Its distribution shows the permeability of the veins, the state of the walls, the presence of volumetric formations in the vascular gaps.An ultrasound is considered more preferable, because it is a non -invasive research method.In the absence of adequate treatment, varicose veins are washing to run a certain number of complications.These include:Thrombophlebitis - inflammation of the expanded and distorted veins;Bleeding due to the rupture of the thin vascular walls;Un changement dans les propriétés rhéologiques du sang, qui conduit à la formation de caillots sanguins, ceci, à son tour, peut entraîner une thromboembolie artérielle pulmonaire, un infarctus du myocarde et un AVC;Excessive skin pigmentation.Trophic ulcers - they can appear from the slightest injury or damage to the skin due to a constantly altered blood out. As a result, ulcers do not heal very long, they hurt terribly and feel unpleasantly.
Basic methods for the treatment of varicose veinsUnfortunately, varicose veins are a chronic disease, and there are no methods to cure it completely. However, medicine has found funds to at least prevent the progression of the disease. The treatment depends directly on the varicose vein stage. If these are only initial manifestations, then you can do without surgical interventions, that is to say only conservative methods.Drugs-This includes drugs that increase the tone of the veins (vintonic), anti-adapted drugs to prevent the formation of blood clots, non-steroidal (analgesic) anti-inflammatory drugs, angioprotectors, as well as all kinds of creams, nails and gels for the skin of the legs.Compression methods - They provide for the use of compression stockings, imposing dressings of elastic bandages to maintain the tone.Pneuminage is a special massage that is carried out using a pneumatic masseur. This is very effective because it improves blood circulation, tissue nutrition and improves the tone of blood vessels.Sclerotherapy is already an extreme method. It is carried out without operational manipulation. For sclerosis, a special substance is injected with it, which stops the blood flow in the ship, following which it is atrophied over time, does not work and does not disappear. However, several sclerotherapy sessions may be necessary to achieve the desired effect.Intravascular laser coagulation is already an invasive treatment method. At the same time, with the help of a laser, surgeons coagulate the damaged veins under local anesthesia. Leeks are a slightly obsolete, but always effective method. It belongs to folk medicine. When applying leeches, bite the skin and, when sucking, is released in the blood substance called Hirudin. It dilutes blood and does not allow thrombus.Diet - In the diet of patients with varicose veins, there should be a large number of vegetables and fruits in any form, seafood, legumes, nuts, low meat varieties and dairy products.Among non -traditional treatment methods, compression of apple cider vinegar, soap and potatoes, soda baths and the use of ginseng dye are given.The basics of varicose vein
Many people wonder if it is possible to finally cure varicose veins? The answer is not. However, certain preventive measures may be observed in order to prevent the occurrence of the disease.In particular, it is an active lifestyle, to get rid of extra pounds, constant gymnastics for lower limbs, the use of compression linen.If the disease has already appeared, the use of hormonal contraceptives should be avoided (they contain female hormones that can worsen the course of the disease).In addition, it must be avoided:The use of any heels shoes, as it increases the load on the feet.Increase in body weight and, even more, obesity.The presence in the diet of fat, sharp, fried, smoked and salty.Heavy lifting.Long lying in a hot bath.Visit a bath and a sauna.Alcohol abuse, smoking.Self-medication without consulting a doctor.In addition, those who must be in a sitting or standing position for a long time should take this into account:During a long stay on the legs, it will not be hard to climb towards the socks and fall on the heels, to move to the foot and to vigorously move your fingers to disperse the accumulated blood;With prolonged work in the desktop in front of the computer, you can periodically put your legs on the table, so that the blood flows better from the legs;You can buy a special knife support on which it will be very practical to do any gymnastics;It is very useful to increase periodically and reduce the fingers, that muscles calf tone and activates blood flow in the veins.Make sure you get up every hour, walk for several minutes and make a small load.
