Varicosis is a pathological condition, a result of chronic venous insufficiency in which the venous walls become thinner, the lumen of the veins increases and the aneurysm of expansion (nodes) is formed.Visually, the veins are very swollen, blue in color, winding.This is the severity of the legs and their fatigue, the legs and legs edema, the legs at night cramps.
The causes of varicos
It is impossible to name a concrete cause, but there are many factors that can cause pressure and a reduction in the elasticity of the veins and the weakening of the valves, resulting in varicose veins.
There are many provocative factors that lead to varicos in clinical flebology: distinguished:
- Work on the legs or are in a long stay position.
- Use of socks with strong elastic bands that press the legs.
- Weakness of tissues as a result of congenital traits.
- Sorting.The legs are increased by the whole body.This factor is dangerous to people whose work lasts longer.
- Genetic predisposition.If the parents were varicos, a child with a 70% probability also develops pathology.It is true that risks can be reduced by avoiding their appearance.You just don't have to create provocative factors.With genetic predisposition, the varicos appear very early.
- Life.If a person is not active enough, the risk of varicose veins will increase.Flebologists call a similar condition "computer -based".
- Hormonal errors and fetus wearing.During pregnancy, varicose veins develop due to an increase in blood and the increase in the size of the uterus.In hormonal failures, progesterone production and estrogen synthesis increase, which increases blood coagulation.
- Obstacles to the outflow of blood.This condition is associated with the formation of blood clots and the formation of tumors.
- Obesity.Excessive weight increases the load on the legs, the malnutrition of blood circulation begins, and the extra pounds causes abdominal pressure, which changes blood outflow.
- Diabetes.In the case of illness, the high sugar rate damages the vascular system, which leads to the formation of blood clots.
- Stress and nerve disorders affect the blood vessels and lead to varicose veins.
- Alcohol consumption.Alcohol is able to bow the body and, with excessive consumption, thickens the blood, the vein obstruction and the malnutrition of blood flow begins.
- Unstable nutrition.If the body does not receive Vitamin C, E, P, and useful trace elements: blood circulation disorder, blood vessels deteriorate, leading to varicose veins.
- Frequent stool delay.In this case, the abdominal pressure increases and the outflow of blood in the legs is disturbed.
- Pathologies of the kidneys and hearts.
- Overdose of drugs to increase blood coagulation.
Depending on the causes of the disease, the 3 main stages of the varicose can be distinguished:
- Compensation.
- Board of compensation.
- Decompensation.
Varico veins do not apply to serious pathologies, but are awesome with their complications.
Listen!If the disease appears, it will not pass on its own.Early appeal to a specialist leads to serious violations, which are dangerous.
The main symptoms of the varicos
The clinical picture of varicosas is not difficult, which allows the flebologist to quickly make a preliminary diagnosis and direct the patient to instrumental diagnosis.
Distinguished between the main signs of varicose dilation:
- The appearance of swelling of the legs by the end of the day, in the evening.The first symptom is possible when wearing especially narrow shoes.After normal rest, the swelling disappears.
- Difficulty in the legs.One exploded not only in severity, but also in the calves, especially after the working day.The symptom occurs more often in people with sedentary work.If you walk in the evening and give you a good rest, the signs will disappear in the morning, but will reappear in the evening.
- Strong heat in the legs, namely the calves.
- At night cramps that reduce caviar.
- The appearance of a vascular mesh on the legs (blue-red "stars").
- Veins grow on the legs (as if rushing on the skin).This service develops one of the latter and talks about a highlighted varicose enlargement.
The symptoms described should be compulsory treatment than before it happens, the less serious complications will be.
The complications of the varicos
With the appearance of varicos, the pathology itself will not pass and begin complications without treatment.What is dangerous varicose veins and what are the consequences of the disease?
The complicated form of varicooses declares themselves through the following:
- Thromboflebitis in acute form.
- Tropical ulcers.
- Flebotrombosis.
- Bleeding.
The progressive disease causes varicothrombophlebitis and then the development of flebotrombosis.Such states affect deep veins, not only disturb the bloodstream of the legs, but also stop the gangrene form.
To diagnose varicoosa
At the beginning of the formation of varicose veins, the symptoms are usually not expressed, often pain in the legs and other feelings of fatigue.
The patient is not solved to visit the doctor (when the veins begin to swell and this becomes noticeable with the naked eye).
Diagnosis of varicose veins is involved in a specialist-physiotoobologist, and the diagnosis was made based on the patient's conversation, confrontation and diagnostic data:
- Color duplex test.It allows you to measure the direction of the blood and blood.The data allow you to make a map of the blood flow.
- Fleet.Show the external features of the veins, the work of the valves.The method is used in extreme cases.
- Diagnostic Samples - Allow the determination of the freedom of the veins and the valves of the valves.The most common breakdown is Troyanov.
- Dopplerography - A bloodstream is carried out in a given vessel.
The methods described are used to diagnose the surface and deep veins.
The consequences of the veins of the varicose veins on the legs
The danger is not in varicose veins, but later complications and consequences, which are a real danger to human life.Consider in more detail.
Venous shortage
This condition includes several steps in development.At the beginning of venous insufficiency, changes are insignificant and horizontal venous reflux appears.
4 stages distinguishable:
- Zero- There are no characteristic symptoms, only temporary swelling of the legs occur, the veins are slightly noticeable.
- First- The legs of the legs are accompanied by a strong varicose spread, but there are no trophy failures.
- The second- The obvious appearance of eczema, ulcers, legs, legs, legs, legs, legs.
- The third- A lasting trophy infringement that cannot be stopped by medicines.
In the case of chronic venous insufficiency, patients occur with the following symptoms:
- Itchy.
- Pain.
- Cramps.
- Swelling.
- Blood stagnation and appearance of formations (varicose nodes).
- Ulcers.
Thromboflebitis
This complication is characterized by the appearance of blood clots that clog the blood vessels.Blood becomes viscous, leading to a complication of the outflow.The top of the lower leg and the bottom of the thigh are affected.A flebologist can easily determine the complication of explicit changes:
- Redness.
- Pain.
- Weakness.
- Tissue seal.
The development of thromboflebitis affects many veins, including lung artery.Treatment of thromboflebitis should be performed without delay in the first symptoms and the surgery is used as a treatment.
In the initial stages, outpatient therapy is performed if the varicose veins do not reach the lower leg.
Used for treatment:
- Nemsteroid drugs to remove inflammation.
- Anticoagulants.
- Angioprotectors.
- Diggarts.
Trofil
The tropical ulcer is always in advanced cases where the blood flow is very disturbed.Typical signs of complication:
- Slow formation.
- Darkness of the skin on the legs, severe pigmentation.
Any foot damage can cause damage and torn.If you do quick help, there will be no consequences, and the injury will be healed quickly, otherwise tissue inflammation will begin, then a bacterial infection of different severity is possible.
A operation is performed to treat complex tropical ulcers.During the treatment, experts prescribe beds for 2 or more weeks.As a conservative treatment, widespread antibiotics, regenerating drugs and local antiseptics are prescribed.
Lung artery thromboembolia
Thromboembolia is the most dangerous and often fatal consequence.This disease involves obstruction of the lung artery or its thrombotic branches by the exit masses.
The main risk of development:
- Oncology.
- Performing surgical intervention.
- Heart failure.
- Thrombophilia.
- Long lie.
Women are subjected to complications more often, and development is possible even in children.You can determine the pulmonary arterial thromboembolium based on the following symptoms:
- Chest pain.
- Increase in temperature.
- Tachicardia.
- Waiting for blood.
- Cough.
- Panting.
- Dyspnea.
It is impossible to diagnose the disease itself, and thromboembolia is suspected to be in urgent hospital care.
Treatment and prevention of varicoosas
To date, many major types of varicos can be used:
- Conservative treatment.The technique depends on the stage of the disease.Use medication therapy, sclerotherapy of the affected veins, and compression treatment.
- Surgery treatment.In this method, there are many types of operations: the radio frequency of the veins, the endovenosic thermal obstruction, the Varad operation and the laser coagulation of the veins.
The essence of prevention is to maintain the blood vessels in a healthy condition and to prevent venous circulatory failures.
Preventive measures are also presented to healthy people who, due to genetics or permanent work, are possible to develop varicose veins and to those who are already sick.
For the purpose of prevention:
- To control body weight, obesity of the legs, the heavy load is that blood circulation and blood vessels cannot work normally.Applying the diet to reduce the weight of the menu should be checked so that it is correct and full.
- It is correct to eat that the diet has products that strengthen the vascular system and normalize blood circulation.Several vegetable food and coarse flour bread should be contained.
- Perform a moderate physical activity that prevents varicose veins and support the veins of the legs in good condition.Swimming, walking, dance is ideal.
- Wear free clothes, shoes.
- Use products in the form of ointments and creams that can saturate tissues with useful substances, improve blood circulation, and strengthen blood vessels.
Even if the varicos develop, prevention can significantly slow down the development of pathology and reduce the risk of complications.
