There are no obvious symptoms of varicose veins in the early stage, and it is common for the lower limbs to be heavy, sore, fatigue and easy fatigue, which can be relieved by lying down and raising the legs to rest, but many people do not pay attention to it during this period, thinking that they are more tired, and will not take any way to prevent it;

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.

The main reason for the formation of varicose veins is that the congenital vascular wall membrane is relatively weak or the same posture is rarely changed for a long time, and the blood accumulates in the lower limbs, which destroys the venous valve over time and produces high venous pressure, which is a symptom of the protruding surface of the blood vessels. Most patients with varicose veins are not severe and do not need **, and care and prevention are the most important. Normal varicose veins can be restored to normal with conservative conditioning.

However, if varicose veins are too severe, they are prone to recurrent ulcers, infections and bleeding, and surgery is required to recover.

How to treat varicose veins.

The first type: baby cabbage.

Baby cabbage is more common in our lives, because it is very similar to Chinese cabbage, and is also known as a miniature version of Chinese cabbage, but compared with baby cabbage, cabbage tastes good, **affordable, and is also a vegetable that often appears on people's tables, but many bad businesses will soak baby cabbage with formaldehyde solution in order to keep the baby fresh, which can not only keep it fresh, but also look better, but it is such a vegetable, which is determined by the World Health Organization to be highly carcinogenic, teratogenic, and cause cardiovascular disease. Varicose veins patients choose to eat this vein, which is very harmful to the body. In daily life, we should also maintain an optimistic attitude and face varicose veins positively.

The second: water spinach.

Water spinach, belongs to alkaline vegetables, itself this vegetable has a very good alleviation effect on vascular diseases, because water spinach this vegetable, in the process of planting is very provoking the phenomenon of insect pests, it is forced to spray some pesticides, and water spinach, different from other vegetables, after spraying insecticides, water spinach this vegetable is more special, the residual pesticides in the leaves and stems and leaves are very difficult to eliminate, if used for a long time must be harmful to the human body.

The third type: zucchini.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that zucchini has the effect of quenching thirst, clearing heat, diuresis, reducing swelling and dissipating knots, which is very popular with people, in fact, zucchini itself will not cause cancer, but after high temperature stir-frying, zucchini will produce a unique acrylamide, and acrylamide is one of the high carcinogens, so those who like to eat zucchini patients should remember not to eat too much of this kind of zucchini after high explosion, which has no effect on the recovery of varicose veins.

Don't be afraid if you have varicose veins, you should take care of yourself from the following aspects

Clause. 1. Avoid sitting for a long time, standing for a long time, soaking feet in hot water, local massage, acupuncture and bloodletting, etc., and it is recommended to elevate the limbs when sitting and standing to promote venous blood return.

Clause. 2. For patients with varicose veins, it is absolutely forbidden to drink tea and coffee, and it is recommended to quit smoking and alcohol to avoid further aggravation of varicose veins.

Clause. 3. For simple early varicose veins, local foam sclerosing agent injections can be used**.

Clause. Fourth, for moderate to severe varicose veins, the commonly used minimally invasive **, including microwave, radiofrequency, laser**, etc., supplemented by local foam sclerosing agent**.

Regardless of the method, wearing compression stockings for 3-6 months after surgery to avoid deep varicose veins includes:

1. Non-surgical**, for patients in the early stage of varicose veins, they can change their bad work and living habits, avoid sitting and standing for a long time, and at the same time can wear elastic stockings, which can well promote venous return, reduce the symptoms of varicose veins, and have a certain reversal effect on the initial varicose veins;

2. If the varicose vein mass is less or the varicose vein mass is more limited, you can use a simple foam sclerosing agent injection, the effect is remarkable, but it is easy, and the compression stockings should be worn for more than six months after injection;

3. Now the clinical use of minimally invasive varicose veins, that is, radiofrequency ablation, laser, microwave, etc., at the same time with the local injection of foam sclerosing agent, with elastic stockings for more than six months after surgery, the surgical effect is obvious, and the rate is relatively low, if the varicose veins have produced superficial vein thrombosis or superficial phlebitis, etc., the lesion varicose vein can be removed, and the thrombus will be removed together, which plays a leading role in superficial phlebitis.

Start with the big toe and tighten it with a cross, then tighten the ball of the foot from the middle with four front and back paths, and finally tie it up at the ankle and tighten it from the middle.

Tie a medical elastic bandage or a general strip of cloth from the ankle and up one by one, until the entire calf is tied. This method costs almost nothing, and it is very effective, as long as you tie your feet well, even if you walk a long distance, you will not feel sore, swollen, numb, or heavy.

The principle of leggings is actually quite simple:

Squeeze blood from the veins to promote blood return. However, there is a trick when tying, that is, the part near the ankle should be tied tighter, and then it should not be tied so tightly.

If the leg tension at the ankle is 100, it drops to 70 or 80 in the middle of the calf, and around the knee, the tension only needs to be 50 or 60.

This is because the blood in the ankle has to flow back, and the gravity that overcomes it is the greatest, so it should be tied the tightest; The higher you go, the less gravity works, so you can tie it looser. Moreover, the bottom is tied tightly and the top is loosely tied, and the pressure difference between the two is also conducive to the return of blood to the top.

If it is troublesome to play leggings, it is recommended to buy a kind of elastic stockings that specialize in lower limb varicose veins. This kind of elastic stockings are available in many pharmacies, and they are not too expensive, two or three hundred yuan. The full name of this compression stocking:"Segmented compression stockings", its characteristics are the same as the leggings mentioned above, the ankle is the tightest, and the more you go up, the looser it is.

But objectively speaking, this method can only"Treat the symptoms"。Whether it's leggings or compression stockings, it's impossible to repair an aging venous valve, so it's"Root of the disease"It can't be cured.
