Why varicose veins cause ulcers in the lower limbs

Hello, varicose veins cause lower limb ulcers mainly due to congenital vein wall or valve weakness, prolonged standing, cough and constipation caused by increased intra-abdominal pressure and obstruction of venous blood return to the lower limbs, which makes the superficial vein wall easy to dilate. The proximal venous valve is insufficiency, resulting in blood reflux, which gradually destroys the distal valve, eventually producing varicose veins.

Varicose veins are abnormal dilation of veins, at the beginning of the occurrence, you will feel local itching, leg swelling, soreness, fatigue, aggravation of standing for a long time, mild like earthworm state, serious ulceration amputation.

The onset of varicose veins is often accompanied by local venous hypertension, which slows down and refluxes the blood return of the lower limbs, resulting in blood stasis in the lower limbs, decreased blood oxygen content, and increased capillary permeability; Superficial vein dilation, resulting in capillary enlargement and capillary endothelial pore enlargement, and macromolecular substances in the blood such as fibrinogen and red blood cells penetrate into the interstitial space.

At the same time, the fibrinolytic activity of blood and tissues is low, and fibrinogen cannot be broken down, so it accumulates and polymerizes into insoluble fibrin complexes, which are deposited around the capillaries to form a barrier that hinders the uptake of oxygen and other nutrients by cells in subcutaneous tissues. Due to the lack of oxygen and nutrients, the metabolic rate of the subcutaneous tissue cells decreases, resulting in edema, fibrosis, pigmentation, subcutaneous fat necrosis and atrophy, and then due to epidermal cell necrosis or trauma, the surface of the skin breaks and bleeds, and the wound does not heal for a long time to form ulceration.

The above is a brief introduction to the ulcers of the lower limbs caused by varicose veins, I hope it will help you. It is recommended that if you have varicose veins, you must be in time** to avoid the aggravation of the condition and cause great harm to yourself. In addition, you should also do a good job of nursing care to prevent the occurrence of diseases.

Because tissues need vascular nutrition, varicose veins can cause blood vessels to become clogged.

The common causes of the formation of old rotten legs are as follows:

1. Due to the lesion of the veins and blood vessels of the lower limbs, the reflux is impaired, and a large amount of blood is stagnant in the lower limbs, inducing varicose veins. After a long time, it leads to the ulceration of **, and the ulceration can not be treated in time and causes infection. Over time, it will affect the surrounding tissues, fascia and bones, and eventually form old rotten legs.

2. When there is arteriosclerosis occlusion of the lower limbs, it will affect the normal blood supply of the lower limbs. Long-term insufficient blood supply can easily lead to ulceration and increase the probability of suffering from old rotten legs.

3. If diabetic patients cannot control their blood sugar well, many complications will occur in severe cases. When peripheral nerves in the lower limbs are affected, the blood supply is insufficient, resulting in the formation of diabetic foot. If it is not treated effectively, it may lead to old rotten legs.

There will be **ulceration; You can use conservative medications**, avoid sitting and standing for a long time to avoid weight-bearing, you can do some exercise exercises such as jogging and jumping rope, and perform leg massage to promote circulation.

It can indeed cause ulcers, do not stand for a long time, do not sit for a long time, you should insist on exercising, or move every hour.

Yes; To avoid this, it's important to pay attention to a good diet, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.

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.

It is recommended that you find a specialist hospital to check it, and if you meet the conditions for surgery, it is best to operate as soon as possible, otherwise even if your ulcer is cured, it will be **.

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.

Consider varicose veins of the lower extremities, which are characterized by elongation, dilation, and sinuous flexion of superficial veins, which occur in people who are engaged in standing work and physical labor for a long time. Whether or not surgery is needed at this time depends mainly on your symptoms. If it is a simple superficial varicose veins of the lower limbs, and the condition is generally mild or moderate, it is recommended to choose traditional Chinese medicine conservative** first, and at the same time sleep on the high foot pad, avoid standing for a long time, and wear elastic stockings to prevent aggravation of symptoms; If the symptoms are **ulcerated, surgery** is the option.

Surgery can be performed with high saphenous vein ligation and stripping, or intervention**. Injecting a hardener is also a way to do it. However, the ** rate is relatively high.

Ulcers are a serious complication of varicose veins, which do not heal for a long time and affect the life and work of patients. At present, there are many ways to have varicose veins, and it is recommended to wear elastic stockings conservatively for mild varicose veins, reduce standing or squatting at ordinary times, and raise your calves 15 to 25cm when sleeping. Severe varicose veins can choose the ETVV venous endovascular comprehensive system, which combines various advantages, high aesthetics, small wounds, less bleeding, short operation time, and the whole process visualization is relatively safe, which can reduce the first rate.

Varicose veins appeared**ulceration, tried a lot of **methods**, but it is getting more and more serious, it can only be said that you didn't find the right method.

For the problem of ulceration caused by varicose veins, you can use the external application of traditional Chinese medicine plaster with body fluid penetration of traditional Chinese medicine target site body fluid, and the active ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine penetrate into the lesion through **, improve the internal environment of the affected area, so that the disease can be obtained.

One: If the work requires sitting or standing for a long time, you can do a leg extension exercise after a while, such as raising the foot and then lowering it, or take a small walk if you have the opportunity. This is one of the ways to prevent and treat varicose veins.

2: Patients can wear that kind of elastic stockings every day for an hour of leg exercise, which can not only prevent leg edema, but also slim the legs. Such as walking, brisk walking, cycling, running or treadmill, etc., to avoid the occurrence of varicose veins.

Three: The patient takes some time out every day to do some leg elevation exercises, such as lying down, then raising the leg above the heart position, and then maintaining the knee flexion, which can promote leg venous circulation.

Four: You should also pay attention to your weight not to be too heavy, because being overweight often increases the burden on the meridians of the legs, which is not conducive to varicose veins.

5. Patients should try not to lift heavy objects except for work, such as heavy objects exceeding 10 kg.

If varicose veins have already ulcerated, it is best to go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible**, and if it is delayed, it will cause more serious harm.

Severe varicose veins require surgery**.

You can use Puji ulcer cream! It has a good effect on chronic ulceration caused by varicose veins and long-term non-healing of wounds.

1.Prevention of varicose veins requires maintaining a normal weight and not being overweight, as excess weight can increase the burden on the veins in the legs.

2.Make it a habit to wear elastic socks for one hour a day to exercise your legs, such as walking, brisk walking, cycling, running or treadmill.

3.Avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time, and always let your feet elevate, put down exercises, or take small walks if possible.

4.To prevent varicose veins, avoid lifting heavy objects of more than about 10 kg.

5.When you go to bed every night, just keep your legs about 6 inches high and maintain the most comfortable position, so don't let your legs stiffen and backfire.

How to not get varicose veins of the lower limbs in time** will cause ulceration, and protective measures should be taken daily.

1. Strengthen exercise: walking, jogging, cycling, and swimming are all good ways to strengthen muscles, reduce fat and cultivate endurance, and people with varicose veins can also benefit from these exercises, and the best and easiest way is to insist on walking, 15 minutes each time, 4 times a day.

2. Light diet: In terms of diet, pay attention to eating less high-fat, high-sugar and high-salt foods to avoid harming the veins.

3. Elevate the legs: When standing workers are resting at work, they should take off their shoes, raise their feet, and their feet should be more than 30 cm higher than their hearts. When you return home after a long walk, you should also elevate your feet for 15 minutes to relieve the pressure of blood on the blood vessels in your lower limbs.

Hello, varicose veins of the lower limbs can cause ankle ulceration in the later stage, and it is recommended to go to a regular specialist hospital for examination as soon as possible. In the case of varicose veins, surgery is recommended as soon as possible**.

Varicose veins of the lower limbs can cause calf ulcers in the later stage, which requires surgery** to avoid aggravation of the condition and old rotten legs.

1. Varicose veins of the lower limbs can cause ulcers in the feet.

2. Diabetes can also cause foot ulcers.

The treatment principles of venous ulcers are divided into two categories: one is symptomatic, including debridement care of local wounds under the guidance of specialists, prevention of infection, application of seedling medicine asthma ointment, etc.; The second is the cause, the root cause of calf varicose veins is the dilatation and tortuosity of the veins, which in turn causes swelling, soreness, ulcers and other discomforts.

Symptoms of varicose veins of the lower extremities.

Generally speaking, the prolongation of varicose veins of the lower limbs will lead to complications such as subcutaneous induration, ulcers, pigmentation, and wet diagnosis. In the absence of deep venous insufficiency, edema may also occur.

Repair of damage that occurs after these symptoms can be quite difficult, and the common clinically visible harms are mainly as follows:

1. The ulcers caused by varicose veins are usually small and superficial, mostly located in the upper and lower areas of the medial malleolus, and are very painful because the nerve endings are exposed. Varicose veins may be seen or palpated adjacent to the ulcer. Ulcers may arise from induration, hyperpigmentation, or after mild trauma to the eczema area.

Ulcers due to deep venous insufficiency are often chronic, and are large when seen.

2. Superficial thrombophlebitis has localized pain, cord-like induration, and periphlebitis causes **reddish-brown and sometimes fever.

3. Superficial thrombophlebitis is rarely complicated by pulmonary embolism, unless there is deep vein blood total formation, which mostly occurs in patients who are bedridden for a long time.

4. The aneurysm-like dilation with very thin walls is common in the elderly, such as the cover is very thin, and mild trauma will rupture and bleed.

Symptoms are usually relieved with compression bandages or compression stockings and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. If the symptoms are not relieved by the above**, local superficial venous thrombectomy under local anesthesia can immediately relieve the symptoms and resume completely normal activities. Small areas of involvement resolve spontaneously within a few days, but induration can persist for weeks.

First: vein stripping. Vein decortication involves finding an incision in the leg and then removing the damaged veins from the body and ligating the remaining veins to calm the varicose veins.

Although the recovery is relatively fast, there are many communication branches between the patient's deep vein and the great saphenous vein, and vein decortication cannot be cleaned up. Even many patients have complications such as redness, swelling, eczema and other complications of the affected limb after choosing surgery, which further damages the body.

Second: sclerosant injection. By injecting high-concentration solvents into the veins of the lower limbs, the intima of the blood vessels is destroyed, and the chemical agents are used to make the blood vessels lose their elasticity, so that the veins atrophy and narrow, so as to achieve the effect of calming varicos.

However, there is a high rate of hardener**, and it may even cause embolism. If a sclerosing agent is accidentally injected into an artery, it can also lead to amputation. This kind of ** method is no longer advocated by physicians because of backwardness.

Third: Laser**. Laser surgery** varicose veins is the same principle as laser freckle removal, only the superficial damaged veins are removed, and the function of the vein valve is not restored from the cause of the disease, so it will also be **.

And because of the high cost, it is not acceptable to the general public.

Fourth: Conservative**. Since ancient times, conservatism has been the way we live in disease.

For us Chinese, we still hope to be able to take conservative ** as the most important ** means. Conservative** generally through diet therapy or the use of some external drugs, and then increase activity and exercise, slowly let the calves return to normal, and gradually get rid of the trouble of varicose veins and restore a healthy body.
