What to watch out for varicose veins? What to pay attention to when varicose veins

Symptom causes: Varicose veins are mainly caused by damage to the vein valves of the lower limbs.

Formal conservative** includes:

1) Avoid standing or sitting for a long time, walking can use the pump action of the calf muscles to promote venous return; (2) Elevation of the lower limbs can alleviate symptoms such as edema;

3) wearing a pressure gradient can delay the progression of the disease;

4) Some drugs can play a leading role.

I will use my knowledge of yin and yang here to analyze it, and you can use it as a reference.

Causes of symptoms:1Excessive pressure in the legs (anodic), damage to the venous vascular valves (negative to the anodic);

2.When the "less yin" turns into "too yin", the venous vascular valves are damaged, and the original "yin and yang balance" is broken, resulting in the "cathode and yang return" cannot be achieved in this balance.

That is to say, after varicose veins, the yin qi in the patient's legs is excessive. If you want to be the best, you have to replenish yang, which is to make the blood active, enhance the activity of cells, and speed up the metabolism of cells. However, the great void should not be made up, and in the same way, the yang should also be supplemented with proportion, and there must be the cooperation of yin.

Let's talk about the specific method of supplementing yang, I don't know much about drugs, so I have to talk about exercise. Because it is necessary to have the cooperation of yin qi, it is advisable to use a gentle type of exercise**, according to my understanding it should be slow first and then gradually accelerated, so you can choose to do an appropriate amount of walking every day, and after one or two months (if you feel that the situation has improved), you can start to practice Taijiquan, Baduanjin, Taijiquan is a relatively gentle martial art, after entering this step, it can continue until it is healed.

Finally, I would like to remind you that life lies in movement, and it is necessary to let patients move, and to move from slow to fast, of course, it should not be too fast!

Hello, patients with varicose veins should try to avoid weight-bearing physical labor, severe cases should be bed rest, and when getting out of bed or going out, they should wear compression stockings or use elastic bandages to reduce the symptoms of the affected limb. In daily life, it is necessary to develop good bowel habits, and those who are habitually constipated should drink a glass of boiled water or oral laxatives before going to bed to avoid squatting for a long time. Nails should be trimmed frequently to prevent scratching**, and if ulcers appear, warm compresses should be given frequently, or the affected area should be soaked in potassium permanganate solution 2-3 times a day.

Hope it helps, good health!

Precautions for varicose veins: If you use conservative**, you must first avoid standing and sitting for a long time, and smoking will have an impact on the lining of the veins, so you must quit smoking. You can exercise the calf muscles, such as mountaineering, jogging, skipping rope, and cycling.

If the calf muscles are very developed, it will act as a muscle pump, so that the blood from the varicose veins can quickly enter the systemic circulation, enter the heart, and then exchange air through the lungs, and enter the whole body through the blood. If the symptoms are severe, you can wear compression stockings, take drugs that enhance vasoactivity, and if there are complications, eczema, itching, ulcers, ruptured bleeding, blood clots, etc., surgery is required**. After the operation, you must go to the ground early, but do not exercise excessively, do not lift heavy objects for a month, and the incision should be protected, and local disinfection can be carried out to avoid water soaking.

1. Patients should avoid standing or sitting for a long time, and when resting, they can raise their legs above the level of the heart, and they can also often do some leg elevation and lowering exercises, so as to speed up blood circulation and try to maintain weight.

4. In the diet, try to keep the salt low, too much salt intake every day, the patient's condition is relatively large, too much salt in the body will absorb water, which will lead to swelling of the calves and pressure on the patient's blood vessels.

5. In normal times, when the patient sits, he should not sit cross-legged, but also try to eat less high-sugar foods, etc., reduce the factors of abdominal pressure, etc., if there are symptoms such as cough and constipation, it should be carried out as soon as possible to avoid affecting the health of the patient.

Normal legs versus varicose veins.

2. Brisk walking, insist on walking briskly 4 times a day, 15 minutes each time, you can effectively relieve symptoms. Because the gastrocnemius muscles move more and more during a brisk walk, the veins act like a pump to supply blood to the heart that has accumulated in the varicose veins. At the same time, due to the acceleration of local microcirculation, the metabolism of varicose veins is also accelerated, and the veins can return to normal quickly.

3. When sleeping at night, raise your legs about 15 cm.

4. Usually do more squat exercises, simple squat exercises can not only exercise muscles, but also be good for joints.

7. Because the venous valve of varicose vein patients is damaged, activities such as weightlifting, long jump, sprinting, throwing and other activities that cause increased abdominal pressure should be avoided.

1. Soreness in the legs, heavy at night, light pigmentation in the morning, dark coloring, scaling, itching, and edema of the ankles. This is an early symptom of common varicose veins.

Superior vena cava syndrome swelling is confined to the head, face, and upper extremities. Budd-Chiari syndrome can present with ascites, hepatosplenomegaly, and abdominal wall varices, which can be misdiagnosed as cirrhosis.

A serious complication of venous thrombosis is that the thrombus breaks off, which can lead to pulmonary embolism and sudden death.

7. Pain, peripheral vascular disease takes pain as the main symptom, and has different manifestations according to the location of the lesion.

People with varicose veins can practice yoga.

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.

Hello, ** Precautions for varicose veinsThe most important point is that you must do a deep vein function test first, if the deep vein function is not good, do varicose vein surgery, it will be counterproductive.

Conditions for the formation of varicose veins.

1.Genetic factors: Congenital absence of venous valves and venous walls.

2.Excessive pressure on the venous valves: prolonged standing or sedentary periods, heavy labor, chronic cough, habitual constipation, etc., can cause the venous valves to relax and not close tightly.

3.Excess body weight: due to gravity, the blood pressure acts on the venous valve, and in the long run, the venous valve function is impaired, and the blood cannot return normally and the disease occurs.

When we feel that we are not feeling well for a long time, then you should pay attention to it and go to the hospital for a check-up in time.

There are the following:

1. Reduce the simple standing for long periods of time.

2. Avoid cold and long-term immersion in cold water of the lower limbs.

2. Use elastic bandage: For patients with mild varicose veins and no obvious clinical symptoms, it is recommended to use elastic bandages or long-term elastic stockings to prevent further development of varicose veins.

3. Proper exercise: Appropriately increasing leg exercise can also promote blood return and reduce varicose veins, such as leg lifting or cycling.
