The treatment regime for varicose veins of the lower ends

Varicose veins - Flage of modern humanity.But often the treatment of varicose veins, whose scheme is selected individually, ends successfully.Sometimes the case costs only therapy and drugs, but sometimes only surgery saves the situation.What are the ways to get rid of this unpleasant and serious disorder?

Varicose veins - Basic information

Varicose veins: a pathological condition characterized by damage to venous vessels.

The veins have special valves that play the role of the peculiar shutters, preventing the blood from losing (venous blood in the legs flows in the direction from the bottom up).

A failure in the functioning of the system of valves brings to reflux blood and stagnant phenomena. Due to these processes, the veins weaken, stretch and deforum, unable to cope with growing blood pressure.

The result is a family symptom - convex veins on the surface of the skin, which indicates the dynamic development of the pathology.

All the illegal illness is that in the initial phases it manifests itself as ordinary effort and gravity in the legs.

Therefore, many are not in a hurry to visit the doctor and the alarm is already starting to play when the blue is visible on the skin, ruining the appearance of the legs.

You can know more about the symptoms of varicose veins in an initial phase here.

The reasons for the development of this pathology are the most diverse. They can include both congenital pathologies of the vascular system and some provocative factors: sedentary lifestyle, excess weight, uncomfortable shoes, professional activities associated with a long living room on the legs.

The treatment of the disease is always performed fully. The necessary scheme is selected by a specialist on the basis of the stage of the development of the disease and the individual characteristics of the body.

Which doctor treats the veins?

Varicose veins are not only expanded veins, but also serious valve disorders and a failure of blood circulation, which leads to serious complications throughout the body.And if the first symptoms appeared that the veins move, muscle cramp, constant heaviness in the legs, it is worth making an appointment immediately with a phlebologist.

On the basis of the severity of the case, the causes of the disease and the state of health, the doctor will select the most suitable therapeutic course of the options available today.

Threatening symptoms

The main reasons that lead to the occurrence of varicose veins are: inheritance, excess weight, a sedentary lifestyle, seated or standing, hormonal imbalance in the body.According to statistics, 40% of adult women and 20% of men have signs of varicose veins.

The diagnostics of the disease is engaged in a phlebologist, it must be contacted, If these symptoms appear:

• Gravity in the legs, which becomes stronger at the end of the day.
• Quick fatigue of the legs during prolonged walk.
• Leg pain.
• The appearance of a fine vascular shirt on the legs.
• Swelling of the legs.
• Convulsions, whose intensity increases at night.
• Itching of the skin of the lower limbs.

Develops gradually Atrophy of the muscle fibers of the surface veins, the blood vessels stretch, expand, become enveloping, the knots appear on the surface of the skin appear on them.The skin on the dilated veins becomes red cyan, dry and warm, the sores appear due to the violation of tissue nutrition.

Due to dystrophic changes in subcutaneous fat, lipermatosclerosis is difficult to develop a dangerous complication of the expansion of the veins on the legs, whose treatment may not be successful with conservative methods.

To avoid the serious consequences of varicose veins, phlegologists recommend their patients The treatment begins in timeWhen the first signs of the disease appear.

Treatment methods

The high effectiveness is characterized by sclerosis, which consists in the introduction of a special sclerosante in ships with a syringe with a more refined needle.The venous gaps are delayed, the edges of tears are welded, thus stopping the filtering of the blood outside the vases.The substance itself, having satisfied its function, is absorbed.

This method eliminates all defects and provides an excellent cosmetic result.But after the procedure, it is necessary to maintain the status of the veins with further therapy and wear compression clothing.

Almost 10 years ago, in medicine, they began to successfully use a laser -based laser coagulation, or rather an Endeno -based to combat varicose veins.The veins are treated as follows:

1. Using local anesthesia, a small drilling is carried out in Vienna.
2. A luminary is introduced into the resulting hole.
3. The laser has an effect on the damaged areas, pushing damage.
4. After a new fabric appears in a sealed place.

The operation is not "blind": the process is observed through the ultrasound system, so there is practically no risk of failure.In addition, the absence of significant cuts excludes pain, the formation of bleeding, the violation of the nearby tissues.

After the procedure, it is worth bandaging areas that have undergone operations or wear socks and tights.

Use the methodology of radio frequency ablation and high frequency current on the varicose veins.This happens as follows:

1. Vienna is pierced.
2. A catheter is inserted in the hole.
3. Through it, the radiation enter the ship.
4. The conductor acts at a molecular level, changing the protein molecules of the damaged vein.

The method allows you to quickly treat all venous nodes and special postoperative therapy is not required.

Ways to treat varicose veins

There are two: conservative and surgical.The patient deals with the current question: how to treat varicose veins on the legs, distributing with surgery.When choosing a method, the doctor takes into account the signs, the stadium of the disease, the presence of complications, of concomitant diseases, of the patient's age.The non -operational methods to eliminate varicose veins of the lower limbs give good results only when the symptoms of the pathology are still weak.

To suspend the degradation of interested ships it helps:

• drug therapy;
• compression treatment;
• physical education of physiotherapy;
• physiotherapy;
• massage;
• Traditional medicine recipes;
• diet.

Flabologists are trying to choose for patients during pregnancy exclusively not a drug for varicose veins of the veins of the lower limbs.First of all, it is compression linen, gymnastics exercises, physiotherapy, massage, diet.If medicinal medicines are still needed, only drugs for external use are prescribed.

Controversies do not stop going, if Irudotherapy helps with varicose veins.Giririna produced by leeches, penetrating the venous system of the lower ends, the liquefies thickened the blood.However, today there are many modern drugs with the same property.In addition, there are risk factors for leeches - vascular infection, allergic reactions.

If necessary, the treatment of varicose veins is performed using radical methods.This:

• sclerotherapy;
• Ozone therapy;
• Criotherapy;
• electrocoagulation;
• laser coagulation;
• Surgery.

Sclerotherapy is an injection in a sick vein of the drug, which "hurry" an expanded ship.It stops pumping blood and is resolved gradually.The maximum effectiveness of sclerotherapy is obtained in an initial phase of the pathology.A similar method is Ozone therapy: a part of this gas is introduced in the lumen of small veins and the vases are also "glued".

During the cryotherapy procedures, the cold is used.With electrocoagulation through a very thin electrode, the high frequency current is provided to ships.The treatment of varicose veins with a laser is also an effective modern method, especially if used in combinations with conservative methods.At the same time, the cosmetic result is high: after a few weeks, the patient has no scars or scars.

However, surgical removal is the most effective treatment that allows you to radically get rid of varicose expansion, when drug therapy does not lead to the desired result.The sick vases are removed through local subcutaneous cuts.After surgery, the leg is not just blindfolded and after three or four hours the patient can walk.

Principles of pharmacological treatment of varicose veins

An effective treatment of varicose veins is possible only if the selected drugs prevent the mechanisms of the development of the pathology, the destruction of walls and bleeding valves.

The main tasks of the pharmacological treatment of varicose veins are:

• restoration of blood circulation;
• strengthening of venous walls;
• increase the tone of the blood vessels;
• decrease in blood viscosity;
• prevention of thrombosis;
• normalization of the valve system;
• elimination of inflammatory processes;
• Normalization of blood circulation in the capillaries.

Drugs are indispensable in the complex treatment of the disease.

They are also widely used for preventive purposes, which is particularly important for people who are at risk of developing pathology.

Today, drugs for the treatment of varicose veins on the legs are a large quantity and all are different in the composition and in the exposure mechanism.

For an appointment with a doctor

Varicose veins - a serious illnessWhich, with improper treatment or its absence, can threaten various complications that are dangerous for health and human life.

Reference.Thromboembolism of vital vases, thrombophlebitis, trophic ulcers - this is far from a complete list of complications of the varicose veins that represent a threat to man.

In this regard, you shouldn't even make cars -media attempts.

Domestic experiments with the selection of drugs can aggravate the situation or be inappropriate.

In any case, we waste time, health and means.

Therefore, it is necessary to contact a phlebologist.Only one specialist will be able to correctly choose drugs and build a treatment regime in order to extract the maximum benefits for the patient.

Which drugs are used

The complex treatment of varicose veins is to use different groups of drugs simultaneously:

1. Flebotonic.
2. Anticoagulants.
3. Anti -inflammatory.
4. Fibrinolytic.

Furthermore, to improve the therapeutic effect, they use System systems and local influence.

Cream, gel, ointments are used as local effects.Choosing drugs for varicose veins and thrombophlebitis, you should keep in mind exactly The instrument in the form of an ointment is characterized by the highest content of the active component.

Important! A common contraindication for all local funds is a violation of the integrity of the skin.

As a rule, these drugs are used several times a day and the drug must be rubbed with light movements in the direction from the bottom up.

Drugs of drugs and their effect

With venous varicose veins, medicinal substances are classified according to the type of effect on Three main groups:

• Venetonic or Flebotropi agents;
• Emorodiosis drugs (anticoagulants) and medicines that inhibit platelets (anti -plants);
• Anti -inflammatory drugs.

Studies and medical practices have demonstrated the effectiveness of the phlegonian developed on the basis of natural flavonoids - Diosmina and Hesperid.These substances do not only protect the veins, but stimulate the outflow of sap and stabilize the work of the capillaries.The simultaneous intake of combined drugs in which there are both flavonoids is particularly effective.

Very often Flebotropic agents Accepts 2 to 3 months in the courses.It is important that the reception coincides with the hot season, when the load on ships increases due to the high air temperature and the use of large volumes of water.If the varicose veins are accompanied by chronic venous deficiency, the phlebotonic is constantly taken half a dose.

Patient with diagnosis of varicose veins From the beginning it should receive systematic treatmentTo prevent the development of the disease and reduce the probability of complications.

The second problem is solved by drugs that thin the blood (anticoagulants) and improve its properties of fluids, preventing the formation of thrombotic (anti -flat) clots.

The formation of blood clots, their separation from the vascular wall and the movement along the venous channel leads to the overlap of the hearts of the heart, lungs and the brain of a person.As a result of this, the probability of developing a heart attack, pulmonary embolism and ischemic stroke is very high.

The antiplan are not a medicine for varicose veins, but are used as a means for the prevention of its serious complications - thrombosis and thrombophlebitis.We can say that these medicines save the patient and minimize the threat of disability.

Operation

The removal of damaged veins of the lower ends or their parts is carried out through engravings or dripping.The elimination of the sick vessels in the clinic is necessary if:

• The veins on the legs are pathologically expanded;
• The skin is interested;
• trophic ulcers appeared;
• Thomboflebitis worsened.

The surgical treatment of varicose veins of the legs is contraindicated:

• in severe hypertension, in coronary diseases, in infectious diseases, in eczema;
• If the patient has already reached an advanced age;
• During pregnancy (term over 5 months).

Additional therapy

In addition to the pharmacological and surgical treatment, additional therapy is of considerable importance, including a series of measures to bring the veins to a normal state:

1. The envelope has a relaxing effect, eliminates the sensation of gravity in the legs.When acquiring the necessary means, it is worth remembering that the hot compresses for varicose veins are contraindicated.
2. Foot baths are another way to help remove the load from the legs.Using herbs and therapeutic oils, you can strengthen the vases, get rid of swelling and redness.But the effect will be only with the daily use of the method.
3. Contrast shower.10 seconds of cold ribs and 30 seconds of hot (hot water is better to avoid) for 5-7 minutes every morning will help keep the veins in good shape.For these purposes, you can use the Alekseev or Charcot shower.

Flebologists in complex treatment often include physiotherapy - laser, magnetotherapy, electrophoresis.

They do not cause discomfort and pain, cheap and quite effective.In addition, the treatment occurs under the supervision of medical operators.The main condition is a regular visit to the office.

The physiotherapy effect fruitfully affects the condition of venous walls, muscle tissue and valves.

Compression therapy is an important component not only of treatment, but also of prevention and the postoperative period.The use of bandages will avoid stagnant processes, support damaged vases, suspend the progression of the disease.

The imposition of bandages requires a certain knowledge and dexterity, since excessive tugs can lead to a deterioration of the condition and the weak bandage will not give the adequate effect.Therefore, for the correct use of the bandages, it is worth obtaining the consultation of a doctor.

The massage with varicose veins is not allowed in all cases, so only a doctor can say if it should be used in a particular case or not.If the method is selected correctly, after the first session you can hear the result.This method can lead to an improvement in blood microcirculation, alleviate the main signs of the disease, including external ones.

The more neglected, the disease is, the more difficult it is to face it and sometimes patients become too late, and therefore only a way out is a phlebectomy.To prevent this from happening, you shouldn't wait complications, but get a timely qualified assistance.

Conservative method

Flebologologists in the treatment of varicose veins seek without traumatic operations that are not necessary in the early stages of the disease.For example, this is characteristic of the reticular expansion of the veins, whose event is limited only by blue venous networks.Preparations help to improve the conditions of the valves and walls of the blood vessels.Men, like women, should wear compression jersey clothing.The pathology cannot be completely treated.However, conservative methods suspend the development of varicose veins and protect against complications.

Gymnastics

How to remove the veins on the legs, performing exercises of physiotherapy exercises, LFK experts know it.This is possible on condition that the recharge, which improves the blood flow in the legs, is systematically performed.For example:

1. In the upright position, the heels of the legs are vigorously raised vigorously.
2. In the same position, staying slowly stands towards socks and equally slowly fall.
3. Sitting on a chair, rolling her feet back and forth a ball on the floor.

Wearing special underwear

Doctors recommend combining the pharmacological treatment of varicose veins with compression linen: they are products from a special type of knitwear that exerts pressure (compression) on the veins.The degree of linen pressure on the walls of the ships can be adjusted by purchasing products with various degrees of compression.

In total, there are four degrees of compression: the first is used for prevention, the rest is for treatment.With varicose veins of the lower limbs, tights, socks, golfs and leggings are worn, the doctor selects the desired degree of compression.

The compression underwear creates a dense pressing frame on the legs, Thanks to this, these effects develop:

• The weakened leg muscles are supported.
• The walls of the blood vessels are compressed, which prevents their elongation.
• The lymphatic flow and blood circulation are stimulated.
• Content phenomena are eliminated.
• The work of the venous valves is normalized.
• The load on the expanded veins is reduced.
• The development of thrombophlebitis is prevented.

Compression kintwear worn compulsory after surgery for varicose veins.Lingerie helps prevent the relapse of the disease, it creates further body support in the rehabilitation period.

Compression sclerotherapy

Compression sclerotherapy is a modern technique for the treatment of varicose veins, which consists in the injection of drugs into the affected veins.Consequently, the sclerosis (gluing) of the venous walls occurs, the blood flow in the place of administration of the drug ceases and the vein is resolved gradually or leaves a load barely evident, which absolutely does not disturb the patient.

Very often, sclerotherapy is carried out with the appearance of vascular stars when varicose veins are in the initial phase.With the progressive development of the varicose veins, the treatment with sclerotherapy is carried out after analyzing the condition of the venous valves and walls of the blood vessels, the functional characteristics of the patient's circulatory system.

If a decision was made to conduct compression sclerotherapy, the patient passes a blood test for coagulation, an ultrasound examination of the veins suffers.During the execution of sclerotherapy, the patient does not undergo pain, since the drug is administered in a vein using the best needle.After completing the procedure, a sterile bandage is applied to the drug administration area, the patient puts in compression underwear.The first week after sclerotherapy, the compression knitwear must be worn all day, so it is allowed to remove it during the night.

Positive results of sclerotherapy:

• Restoration of effective blood flow.
• The exclusion of blood clots in the damaged vein.
• Prevention of trophic disorders in the fabrics.
• Elimination of the clinical symptoms of varicose veins: edema, convulsions, pain.
• An excellent cosmetic effect due to the fact that the swollen veins completely disappear.

Diet

For a more effective treatment of varicose veins of the legs, it is important to correctly organize nutrition.Berri, apples, citrus fruits that contain flavonoids, antioxidants and routines help to improve the state of the blood vessels.Blood liquefaction provides daily intake of a sufficient amount of fluid (1.5-2 l).The diet for varicose veins on the legs is incompatible with fatty, fried dishes, acute spices, alcohol.

Popular remedies

The treatment of varicose veins with popular remedies at home in summer is particularly effective.Such recipes are popular:

1. The legs of 15-20 minutes compress with tomato paste.It has a high lyse content, which actively strengthens the vessels and prevents the formation of blood clots.At the same time, there are fresh tomatoes every day.
2. Infusion of Donnik, grass, indispensable for varicose veins: art.the.The raw materials are prepared with two glasses of boiling water, maintained to cool, filtered.They drink half a glass every day 3 times, the rest is used as lotions.

What cannot be done

In the diagnosis of varicose veins, it must be taken into consideration with a lifestyle, nutrition and sport. Not allowed:

• Active physical effort, running, jumping (yoga classes are allowed);
• long -standing or prolonged session position;
• the use of all drugs without consulting a phlebologist;
• Long flights with a forced immobile position of the legs.In addition, at high altitudes there is a strong thickening of the blood, which leads to the formation of blood clots;
• accept hot baths, visit the sauna;
• The Bannous and honey massage is strictly prohibited, only a medical massage manual type is allowed.

Possible complications

Trophic ulcers - The form of complication for varicose veins, which occurs in the development and deepening of a long -standing dozen.Typically, a separate painful ulcer occurs on the lower part of the leg, within which "crying" is often observed in the form of a bleeding bleeding liquid that covers the fabrics concerned.

Urgent medical assistance

A doctor is immediately required when the following symptoms appear:

• Strengthen the pain in the limb concerned, the inability to get out of bed or take a few steps;
• The skin on the leg is warm, edematous and dense to the touch.
• The color of the skin changes from the pale to cyanotic red or bluish;
• Sudden lack of breath, lack of air, sweating and strong weakness;
• Bleeding from an affected leather area or varicose node.

The drugs necessary for the varicose veins of the lower ends must be present in the complex treatment. Even after the surgery, several courses for the withdrawal of phlegonic and anti -agricultural agents will be needed In order to prevent possible trophic disorders, inflammations and complications against the background of the disease.

Many multi -component preparations against varicose veins combine, have different functions.The effectiveness of these drugs is more pronounced. It is optimal to use the treatment with courses in the correct dosage calculated by a phlebologist, combined with compression therapy, yoga, swimming pool, herbal medicine.

Conclusion

The complex treatment of varicose veins of the lower ends involves the use of various therapeutic techniques.

Together with the pharmacological treatment, physiotherapy procedures, special exercises, massage, etc. are prescribed.
