In the initial stages, the disease rarely annoy patients.However, the presence of advanced veins, even if they still do not bother, it already has a great danger to life, since at any time the most dangerous complication can arise,thrombophlebitis.
With varicose veins, damaged valves allow blood to penetrate the venous surface system, as a result of which there is an increase in pressure, which leads to its expansion.Blood flow slows down, the power of oxygen tissues decreases, ulcers occur.
Causes of the disease:
- inheritance;Hereditary weakness of blood vessels
- Long static loads
- A sedentary lifestyle
- Take hormonal medicines and hormonal disorders
- pregnancy
- Leg injuries
- Levante Severity, Overload (for example, sudden start of active training after several years of inactive lifestyle)
- smoking
At riskPeople come in the same way as young and old people:
- Those who use high heels;
- Athletes whose classes are associated with a large load of legs (tennis, heavy athletics, bodybuilding);
- The profession makes you stop during the working day, to be behind the wheel, computer hairdressers, sellers, teachers, waiters and representatives of other professions that spend a lot of time standing;
- "Sitting" professions and those who really like to throw their feet;
- Coffee and alcohol fans, because these products dehydrate the body and, therefore, thick the blood, which complicates their path back to the heart.
How to recognize the disease:
If at the end of the workday the legs feel in the legs, and their favorite shoes have narrowed due to a light edema, then these are the first signs.The convulsions periodically occur, the pain of caviar must also alert.
Changes in the veins generally begin with little to the eye, with the appearance of vascular stars.
In the future, irreversible processes occur in large veins, come to the surface, their walls in some places become thinner and are knotted.
Food and diet
The diet for varicose veins is a maximum of vegetables and fruits, a minimum of salty and smoked.Diet with low animal proteins, fats and refined carbohydrates.Blood is thick from acute foods, which leads to the formation of blood clots.Vodka, Coñac and whiskey act similarly.It is recommended to eat the least possible meat.It is not surprising that the Papues and the peoples of the Far East, who prefer vegetarian food, never suffer from this disease.
Include fresh fish, fruits and vegetables, fiber -rich foods, with a high vitamin C content, diet routine.Of plant products, everything is useful.The ABC principle is valid here, where A is carrots, B is a salad of leaves and C is vegetables and citrus fruits.Two most important vitamins should be added to this list, strengthening the walls of the vessels.This is vitamin E, which is contained in olive oil and vitamin P, which is part of nuts, green tea and pink.Vitamins C and E are components of the collagen connective tissue of veins and venous valves.In surprise, the veins are surprisingly enriched with the necessary nutrients and make them more elastic sprouted grains of wheat and rye, as well as peas, beans and green onions.Garlic is a special place.
Scientists have shown that garlic has a beneficial effect on blood.This is manifested in the prevention of formation in the vessels of blood clots, blood clots that hinder or overlap the blood.
If we summarize almost thirty scientific experiments, during which the effect of garlic on blood viscosity was verified, then it can be briefly determined as follows: if you take garlic for a certain period of time, you can expect an increase in the level of dissipation of intravascular clouds by 50%.In addition to contributing to the reabsorption of blood clots in the blood, garlic does not allow thrombocytes to increase and compacan and, therefore, form blood clots.
Coma 2-3 garlic cloves with food daily.This helps reduce blood pressure, clean the vessels of atherosclerotic deposits, strengthen their walls and prevent varicose veins, etc.
Prevention:
If you have the initial signs of the varicose veins, then compliance with the fairly simple rules will slow down and, in some cases, to avoid its greater development.
- Don't get carried away with hot bathsSauna, long stay in the sun.All of the above reduces venous tone, leads to blood stagnation in the lower extremities.
- Move more.To strengthen the veins and improve blood circulation will help regular sports.Aerobics, race, moderate swimming contribute to the cure of their veins.
- Reduce weight.People who suffer from overweight are especially susceptible to such disease.In the blood vessels of the complete person there is more blood than that of a person with normal weight, so such vessels represent too much load.We can only give advice to people overweight in such a situation: lose weight and maintain their constantly normal weight.
- Do not wear tight clothes, socks and socks with adjusted elastic bands, since this leads to tight veins.But the support of socks and socks help prevent varicose veins.
- Alternate the load uniformly, never staying for a long time in the same position.
- Don't sit on your foot!By throwing one knee on another, an obstacle is created in the path of blood flow.
- Move.Varicose veins can cause a prolonged position, since in this case the normal blood flow is altered.Try to move weight if you have to endure for a long time.The long -term session will not benefit it: try to get up and move around the room from time to time or walk every half hour.
- Exercise in the morning.Before bedtime and in the morning after waking up for 3-5 minutes, twisting the legs and feet, this improves blood circulation in the lower extremities.
- Do not use heelsAnd narrow shoes.
- Pour your legs with cold waterAfter work.
- Go to Rocío moreand the edge of reservoirs in the summer.
If you are not sick with varicose veins, but only predisposed to it, for prevention, daily self-stomach will be useful, with soft strokes and kneading your legs from the bottom.
If the "varicose veins" diagnosis is already made, the leg massage procedures are prohibited!
The lack of physical exercises and chronic constipation are factors that contribute to the development of varicose veins.
If you feel the seriousness of the night of the night after a working day, during sleep and rest, the legs must be kept in high conditions.When you rest, read the book, watch television: throw your legs above.You can put a pad or high roller.
If your work is accompanied by a long seat on the table or if you are standing for a long time, then you must change the position of your legs more frequently, walk in your place, turn your feet.
After the shower or the adoption of the bathroom, rinse the legs with cold water.There are sports that are useful with this disease: that is, in the first place, swim, as well as walk, easily run, cycling, skiing.
Healing and therapeutic gymnastics:
The daily performance of special exercises will be very beneficial:
- Go up in socks.Initial positions: We stop straight, the feet are parallel to each other and press one towards the other.At the expense at once, go up to the socks, at the expense of two, go down to the initial position.Repeat 20-30 times.
- RISE (socks - apart).Initial positions: We stop straight, heels, together, socks, apart.At the expense at once, go up to the socks, at the expense of two, go down to the initial position.Repeat 20-30 times.
- RISE (heels - apart).Initial positions (we stop straight, socks, together, heels, separated. In this position at the expense at once, go up to the socks, at the expense of two, go down to the initial position. Repeat 20-30 times.
- Another useful exercise is the "bicycle" from the position of bedtime on the back.It is very important: when doing this exercise, straighten the legs until the end.
