If by the end of the working day you start to hurt and swell your legs and the vessels are seen in the form of blue-violet "stars" on your skin, you probably have the initial section varicose veins- In this case, do not be afraid and even delay the vision of the Flebologist.First, according to statistics, by the age of 20, the population of Russia is approx.17% suffer from venous insufficiency (that is, the first prerequisites for the formation of varicos) and this disease is much more common than the stronger gender.Second, modern medicine has been quite successfully learned to cope varicose veinsTherefore, the sooner you consult with a doctor, the more likely you have to avoid surgery and only to bypass treatment therapy (medicine, ointment, special elastic bedding).
What causes the veins of the varicose veins, can be avoided, and what treatment methods exist?
So, Varicose veins - A condition in which the peripheral veins (usually on the surface of the legs under the skin) are inflated and bends in the form of swollen bluish grams.Most often, varicose veins, valve failure and damaged blood flow, which in the most advanced cases lead to thromboembolism and thromboflebitis (inflammation of the vein wall and clogging of a thrombus).
According to scientists, the appearance of varicose veins can be provocative: inheritance (if one relative had a particular disease in the family), sharp (reduction) of body weight (reduction), hard physical effort work.In women, hormonal changes (such as adolescence), pregnancy and body -related loads may be causes of varicose veins.Under the influence of physical and hormonal changes, the venous system becomes particularly unprotected.The weaker the more likely it is to violate blood outflow from the legs and the formation of venous insufficiency.
Despite the high levels of science and medicine, there are only three ways to treat varicos.
Pharmaceutical method
The patient prescribes a course of medicines (you can only prescribe your doctor, it is not recommended to do so).Before use, carefully read the use instructions to prepare the side effects of the drug (such as drowsiness or dizziness) and check that you have an allergy to the chemicals that make up it.The method of the drug is only used in the early stages of the varicos.
Sclerotherapy
Method of the method: a special medicine is introduced into the sore vein with a syringe and needle, which leads to a thrombus formation that, in turn, clogs Vienna.Blood flow stops and stagnation disappears.The sclerotherapy process is almost painless and lasts only 5-10 minutes.But with the positive aspects of this method (namely surgery and non -related ability), sclerotherapy also has disadvantages: unfortunately, it can occur in the focus of inflammation when the drug enters the skin), and this treatment method is generally contraindicated in patients with increased allergic reactions.
Surgical removal of varicoosis
It is prescribed in the most extreme cases where other treatment methods are inadequate or the disease is too neglected.An operation is performed in which the sore vein is removed by a small incision.Before the operation, you should go through an ultrasonic duplex or triplex test to identify the whole venous system and especially the operated area.
Like sclerotherapy, the surgical method allows you to transmit the flow of venous blood from the surface veins, while surgical intervention does not eliminate the cause of the disease, but only eliminate its consequences.Therefore, if a person does not follow the recommendations of a flebologist after surgery, it is possible.
Each of the treated treatment methods has a serious contraindication, so the doctor has to decide which option is suitable for you.It is better for multiple professionals to examine the diagnosis and the correctness of the prescribed treatment.It is worth forgetting that it is always easier to prevent the disease than treatment, so if you do not want to suffer with the sick veins, it will follow the simplest recommendations, and then the varicos are not terrible.
