Good strong veins require constant care for themselves.At the initial stage, varicose veins destroy the beauty of the legs, pose a small threat to health, but by progressing, this creates complications and carries a danger to life.Varicose of other organs are most often satellites of various diseases and in order to achieve a true effect that must be treated with them.Risk groups that must first remember the prevention of varicose veins:
- Anyone leading a sedentary lifestyle.

Many people do not even suspect that they are carrying a serious illness.The advanced stage of this disease is treated enough, unlike the original disease.Therefore, all, and especially those who have poor heredity, need to know what varicose veins are, its symptoms and remember - timely contact with a phlebologist is simply necessary, just as a preventative examination by a dentist.You need to take care of your health without letting the occasion.
Different veins, what is it?
To understand what varicose veins are, let's look at the deep causes of this disease.As you know, our body is penetrated by a frequent network of blood vessels, some of which move blood to the heart - veins, others, on the contrary, carry it in the opposite direction - these are arteries.While the system works harmoniously and the blood vessels are clean, supple and not exposed to excessive loads, everything is fine.If regular failures begin, sooner or later they can lead to diseases, one of which is varicose veins.
It can occur in any part of the body, but most often it is located in the limbs.Partly because, lifting the blood up the legs, the veins withstand high loads, partly, because our limbs, it is one of the most loaded parts of our body - we are forced to lift weights, walk, stand or sit, which is also bad because it interferes with normal blood flow.
Methods of treatment
The clinic uses modern methods for the treatment of varicose veins in accordance with the standards of the World Association of Phlebologists.Each method has its own indications and restrictions for use, it all depends on the diagnosis.The use of non -surgical techniques is a priority direction of our center.
Sclerotherapy
It is used as a rule in the initial stage of varicose veins.In addition to the therapeutic component, sclerotherapy is the only method aimed at producing a cosmetic result - the removal of vascular stars and reticular varicose veins.Using a syringe and needles (injections), a special medicine is introduced into the varicose vein, "sticking" to the walls of the vessel.The session of one procedure lasts about ten minutes.2-4 sessions are held on average.
Transdermal laser technology.
Innovative transdermal laser technology are used to remove vascular stars, telagioectasis and small capillaries.It allows with a minimal effect of laser radiation on adjacent tissues, only damaged vessels for selective coaging are selected without injuring healthy skin. The effect of the procedure is endangered veins or capillaries, you can see almost immediately.
Laser and radio frequency technologies
On larger vessels, treatment is performed with laser and radio frequency technologies.
These are effective frugal vein removal methods that are classified as an "office phlebology" with a quick recovery period - two hours after such procedures, the patient independently leaves the clinic and can return to the usual rhythm of life.
Small invasive surgery
In cases where you cannot do without surgery, the specialists of the phlebology Center use minimally invasive technologies - mini -operations, combined surgical interventions, cryodestruction, which are successfully performed in a hospital for one day.
The main task of the medical center is to guarantee the maximum safety of the patient during the surgery. What is important to know about varicose veins?The presence of advanced veins in itself is already an indication of treatment, even if it does not hurt.In such veins, the valves do not work, the blood stagnates, and Vienna loses its function.The longer you "grow" your veins, the greater the amount of treatment, in addition, in the presence of elongated veins there is a risk of thrombosis.It is much easier and easier to solve the problem at the initial stage than to lead to surgery.
Also, do not forget that with age, even the worst treatment can be complicated due to concomitant diseases such as high blood pressure.
Varicose veins of limb complications
The most common form of this disease, which is mainly implied with the mention of varicose veins, is varicose veins of the legs.Its initial symptoms are listed above and what can be overlooked by treatment?We list the main complications of this disease:
- thrombophlebitis;
- phlebotrombosis;
- trophic ulcers;
- Bleeding varicose nodes.
What is thrombophlebitis?It is an inflammation of the walls of the outer veins and the appearance of blood clots on them, which not only narrow the blood flow space, but also as a result can completely block the vessel.Almost from the beginning, she accompanied the varicose veins.And as a result, a person who does not participate in his veins receives acute thrombophlebitis on a bouquet of complications when the thrombus not only interferes with blood circulation, but also is the center of focus of inflammation, affecting not only the walls of the vessel but also in the nearby tissues.
Flobotrombosis - deep vein thrombophlebitis, not less serious and with great difficulty in treating the disease when thrombosis prevents blood flow, and the vessels and tissues themselves are inflamed.What is thrombosis?This is the appearance in the vessels of blood clots that prevent blood flow or even completely overlap the lumen of the blood vessels.Even a partial reduction in fresh blood supply slows down the metabolism of tissues and leads to the accumulation of its products and overall blocking - it can eventually lead to the death of cells, that is, to tissue necrosis.
Another serious problem, varicose veins of the last degrees, these are trophic ulcers - open, long inconspicuous wounds.How long?If the wound does not intend to drag for a month and a half, it is a trophic ulcer.It is treated, but it is a long and complex treatment when you need to combine surgical and therapeutic methods.
No less dangerous is such a complication as the bleeding of varicose nodes.It can be caused both by the thinning of the vessels in the thickening sites and by the mechanical exposure.Because to damage the surrounding and the loss of the vessel for elasticity costs nothing.It is not necessary to think that this applies only to external veins, which are deeply "gentle" and susceptible to any loads, shocks, shifts.Varicose in the video makes an even more depressing impression.To prevent this, you should consult your doctor as soon as possible and strictly follow all his instructions, both in treatment and in lifestyle.
Varicose vein cream opinion from doctors
Cream manufacturers offer you to get rid of varicose veins for 14 days.The official website claims that this tool, created on the basis of natural ingredients, allows you to completely eliminate not only the symptoms of the disease, but also the varicose veins themselves.Whether they will reduce in size or it will completely disappear under the influence of the active substances of the cream is not known, but the main thing is that you will get the result not temporarily but constantly.Is it possible?

- Normalizing blood flow, healing trophic ulcers.
Although you will be completely cured after 2 weeks, the overall course of treatment, cream sellers recommend that they be extended to 2 months.Most likely, this is necessary to avoid recurrence of the disease.
Currently, medicine is not yet known medicines that could completely eliminate varicose veins for several years.Remember that cream manufacturers promise this effect in just 2 weeks.What will varicose veins go?
According to the official site data, the cream contains the following components:
- Ginkgo biloba - to improve blood circulation and reduce inflammation;
- Hamamelis extract - to dissolve blood clots, normalize lymph leakage;
- Horse chestnut - to remove the fragility of the capillaries, absorption of the vascular venous network, prevent the appearance of new blood clots;
- Troxerutin and urea - to remove edema;
- Vegetable oils of corn and sunflower - to strengthen the blood vessels;
- Menthol - to relieve spasm in the legs.
With this composition, the cream will surely save you from varicose veins, has its components with all those properties listed on the official product website.One of the problems is the greater part of them, invented and therefore the treatment of varicose veins when using this cream is unlikely.
The varicose vein cream in its effectiveness is contrasting with the generally accepted methods of treating varicose veins, such as:
- surgery;
- use of tablets;
- Compression therapy.
It is claimed that unlike all these therapeutic techniques, the cream based on natural components eliminates entirely and forever without harming health.Unfortunately, this only happens in the fantasies of sellers.
In recent years, dozens of varicose veins have emerged, each of which is completely treating this disease.They are sold thanks to bright advertising and leave the market when too many reports of the low effectiveness of the next "miraculous" cream appear on the Internet.But the sellers do not lose their heart.Another cream comes to the old product and it is again sold through direct fraud to people suffering from varicose veins.
The real effect of the cream, if the composition corresponds to the declared manufacturer, is only a reduction in the symptoms of the disease.The duration of the therapeutic effect is several hours.In this case, it has no effect on the dynamics of the development of the disease or the risk of complications.
Naturally, under the influence of creams and ointments, there is no absorption of varicose veins, lengthened blood vessels, nor dissolution of blood clots.Most of the components that are part of the drug are only effective when oral administration and are practically useless with local use.But even with internal use, the active substances only reduce the symptoms and slow down the development of the disease and do not treat completely varicose veins.
