A study of squats and varicose veins of the lower extremities

Proper squatting exercises can help improve varicose veins to a certain extent.

A simple squat exercise not only builds muscles, but is also good for the joints. It can not only effectively prevent and treat symptoms such as varicose veins of the lower limbs and calf cramps, but also promote blood circulation and enhance physical fitness.

Don't look at the squatting action is very simple, but there is a certain amount of attention to it, otherwise it will be the opposite. When squatting, it is best not to squat, that is, the angle of knee bending should not be less than 60 degrees, otherwise it is easy to get dizzy when getting up. When doing squatting exercises, don't move too violently, and the angle of knee bending can be from large to small, step by step.

Take time to squat every day, and you will receive unexpected workout results. It should be reminded that elderly people with poor knee joints and patients with chronic diseases should be cautious to try squat exercises.

First of all, the root cause of varicose veins is mainly the accumulation and hardening of blood vessels for a long time, and squats help blood circulation, so there is a relieving effect.

Quit smoking, because smoking can change the viscosity of the blood, and the blood becomes viscous and easy to stagnate.

If it is simple superficial varicose veins of the lower limbs, the general clinical symptoms are mild, the progression is slow, and most of them are manifested as simple varicose veins, and in a few cases, there may be thrombophlebitis, venous ulcers, etc.; If it is a deep vein valve insufficiency, or even a deep venous return obstruction, the condition is relatively serious, the calf has a feeling of heaviness when standing, easy fatigue, and even swelling and bursting pain of the lower limbs, and the later stage will occur ** nutritional changes, desquamation, atrophy, pigmentation, eczema ulcer formation.

Daily prevention of varicose veins of the lower limbs.

1. Rub the calf: Clamp one side of the calf with the palms of both hands, rub while turning, knead each side about 20 times, and then knead the other leg in the same way. This method strengthens the legs.

2. Wrench the feet: take a sitting position, straighten the legs, bow the head, bend the body forward, and wrench the toes and ankle joints with both hands 20-30 times, which can exercise the foot strength and prevent the legs and feet from being weak and weak.

3. Twist the knees: put the feet parallel to each other, bend the knees and squat down slightly, put both hands on the knees, and rotate the knees in a circle before and after, first to the left, and then to the right, about 20 times each. Weakness of the lower limbs and knee pain can be achieved.

Varicose veins of the lower limbs are caused by poor blood return, and long-term squatting will make the blood circulation in the legs unable to circulate and aggravate varicose veins, such as static squatting, hooking leg jumps, and crossing knee raises. Squats will congest and swell the muscle area, which will dilate the blood vessels, and patients with varicose veins have thin blood vessel walls and circuitous blood vessels, so congestion of the lower limbs may aggravate the condition. Usually do more lower limb massage, so that the legs are elevated more to facilitate venous blood return.

Prevention and treatment of varicose veins of the lower limbs.

1. Strengthen exercise.

After the appearance of varicose veins, we should strengthen exercise, do more activities according to our own conditions, and try to choose some lightweight exercises, so as to give full play to the pumping ability of the lower limb calf muscle pump, help promote blood circulation, improve varicose veins, and effectively reduce blood viscosity to a certain extent, thereby reducing the area of venous vascular blockage.

2. Patients with varicose veins should eat more shiitake mushrooms.

Shiitake mushroom is a very common food in life, not only nutritious, but also has a good effect on enhancing immunity, and at the same time has a very important position in supplementing various nutrients needed by the human body, in addition, shiitake mushrooms also contain purines, oxidase and other substances, which can reduce the content of cholesterol and blood lipids in the blood, promote the circulation of venous blood in the lower limbs, and achieve the effect of improving varicose veins.

3. Patients with varicose veins should also eat more celery.

The taste of celery is cool, some people like it, some people don't like it very much, celery this vegetable contains mannitol, vitamins and proteins, which has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, lowering blood pressure and lowering blood lipids, and has a relatively obvious effect on improving varicose veins, and can also reduce swelling, and has a very good effect on the recovery of varicose veins.

1. Leg massage, both hands are placed on both sides of the calf, from the ankle to the knee joint, rubbing the calf muscles to help venous blood return.

2. Simple squat exercise can not only exercise muscles, but also be good for joints, can effectively prevent mild varicose veins, can also promote blood circulation, and enhance physical fitness.

3. When lying down to rest, elevate your legs above the level of your heart, and keep your knees bent for about 15 minutes. to promote blood circulation in the legs and relieve the symptoms of varicose veins in the lower limbs.

4. Before going to bed, you can do special intravenous exercises, lift the lower limbs, keep the soles of the feet parallel to the body, and then let the legs and feet shake gently. When sleeping, take the left side lying position, because lying on the left side can avoid compressing the inferior vena cava of the abdomen and reduce the pressure on the veins of both legs, it is recommended to use a pillow to lean on and elevate the varicose lower limb at an angle of 30-40 degrees.

** Methods for varicose veins of the lower limbs.

1. Take care of your leg health. People with varicose veins should always take care of their leg health, and should always avoid excessive pressure on the lower limbs that aggravate the degree of varicose veins. If you are a woman, try to avoid wearing tight pants, and you should also avoid crossing your knees or stilting your legs.

When sleeping, the leg position can be raised to promote the return of venous blood, and the daily sleep can be taken on the left side.

2. In the daily diet, patients should eat more protein-rich foods. Adequate protein can help maintain the balance of nutrients in the body, help improve the body's immunity, protect cells, promote blood flow, and achieve the effect of relieving varicose veins.

3. Essential exercise. People who suffer from varicose veins should do more gentle physical exercises in their daily life, which is essential for alleviating the condition. You can take a walk every night or in the morning, which can exercise the strength of the leg muscles, increase the blood circulation in the legs, strengthen the blood vessels in the legs, and reduce venous congestion.

Varicose veins exercise** method.

The principle of the occurrence of varicose veins will know that there is a clear relationship between varicose veins and the pressure in our veins. When muscles contract throughout the body, pressure increases in the chest and abdomen, and pressure is transmitted to the lower legs, which worsens varicose veins. Especially in the way of weight-bearing squats, the pressure of our blood vessels is relatively high, and our abdominal pressure will increase more obviously when exercising, so these pressures are transmitted to the thinner blood vessels and bear heavier pressure, so the occurrence and progress of varicose veins is inevitable.

Varicose veins refer to the tortuosity and dilation of veins due to factors such as blood stagnation and weak venous walls. Varicose veins can occur in many parts of the body, such as hemorrhoids are actually a kind of varicose veins, and clinical manifestations include esophageal and gastric varices, varicoceles and abdominal wall varices. Varicose veins most often occur in the lower extremities.

It is worth emphasizing that varicose veins are secondary manifestations of other lesions.

Don't stand or sit for long periods of time. This is not good for alleviating the symptoms of varicose veins, so try to reduce the workload and avoid standing or lying on your back for a long time.

Avoid wearing tight clothing. The belt and shoes should not be too tight, and it is best to wear low-heeled shoes.

Control your weight. If you are overweight, it will increase the burden on your body and make varicose veins worse.

Don't lift heavy objects. Heavy objects can increase the body's pressure on the lower limbs, which is not conducive to relieving the symptoms of varicose veins.

Avoid high temperatures. High temperatures tend to dilate blood vessels, which can aggravate the condition.

The left decubitus position is used. When resting and sleeping, patients should try to use the left decubitus position, which is conducive to blood circulation in the inferior vena cava and reduces the symptoms of varicose veins.

Sleep with a towel or quilt under your feet and elevate the affected limb. This makes it easier for blood to return and reduces pressure on the legs.

Wear varicose vein decompression stockings. Varicose vein decompression stockings can help venous return and are a medical device for varicose veins.

Rest, injury, and exercise are not treating yourself.

Jogging can relieve the symptoms of varicose veins to some extent. For varicose vein patients, running for 15-30 minutes each time can increase the activity of the leg muscles, squeeze the blood in the veins, make it flow more smoothly, and help relieve the symptoms of varicose veins. Patients with varicose veins need to take protective measures when running for a long time, and it is recommended to use second-level pressure medical compression stockings.

It is recommended to wear short compression stockings that cover the feet to the knees, as compression stockings that only cover the calves to the ankle joints will cause poor blood return to the feet and swelling of the foot surface.

Simple superficial varicose veins of the lower limbs refers to the lesions limited to the superficial veins of the lower limbs, and the range of lesions includes the great saphenous vein, the small saphenous vein and its branches, and the vast majority of patients occur in the great saphenous vein, and the clinical diagnosis is great saphenous varice. The superficial veins of the lesion are elongated, dilated, and sinuous and flexed, and are more likely to occur in people who are engaged in standing work and manual labor for a long time. Simple superficial varicose veins of the lower extremities are generally mild, and surgery often yields better results.

If it is simple superficial varicose veins of the lower limbs, the general clinical symptoms are mild, the progression is slow, and most of them are manifested as simple varicose veins, and in a few cases, there may be thrombophlebitis, venous ulcers, etc.; If it is a deep vein valve insufficiency, or even a deep venous return obstruction, the condition is relatively serious, the calf has a feeling of heaviness when standing, easy fatigue, and even swelling and bursting pain of the lower limbs, and the later stage will occur ** nutritional changes, desquamation, atrophy, pigmentation, eczema ulcer formation.

Varicose veins are varicose veins in the lower extremities. Patients with varicose veins of the lower extremities can exercise appropriately, but not vigorously. Varicose veins of the lower limbs are caused by the impaired function of the venous valves of the lower limbs, which causes the blood in the veins of the lower limbs to not flow back normally, and the blood stagnates in the blood vessels.

Patients with varicose veins of the lower limbs can contract muscles during exercise, thereby squeezing the veins of the lower limbs, which can promote the return of blood from the veins of the lower limbs and relieve the symptoms of varicose veins of the lower limbs. However, when patients exercise vigorously, it will cause a significant increase in acidic metabolites in the lower limbs, which will lead to the dilation of blood vessels in the lower limbs and aggravate the symptoms of varicose veins in the lower limbs. Patients with varicose veins of the lower limbs can take brisk walking or jogging for exercise, try not to exercise by long-distance running or playing basketball, and appropriately elevate the lower limbs when resting.

Ten minutes of squatting leg exercise every day can help with varicose veins to a certain extent. A simple squat exercise not only works the leg muscles, but is also good for the joints. It can also effectively prevent and treat symptoms such as varicose veins of the lower limbs and calf cramps, and can also promote blood circulation, which is conducive to enhancing physical fitness.

Long-term adherence helps to strengthen the blood vessels in the legs and relieve venous pressure.

Hello, according to what you said, once you have varicose veins, you must pay attention:

1. Exercise more, but not over-exercise, proper exercise can speed up the blood circulation in the legs and strengthen the blood vessels in the legs.

2. Avoid standing and walking for a long time, and do adequate leg massage when appropriate.

3. Keep your diet low in salt. Too much salt in the body can cause the body to absorb water, which in turn can cause the calves to swell and put pressure on the blood vessels.
