Varicose veins (varicose veins) - Expansion and lengthening of the veins (blood vessels carrying blood to the heart) of the lower limbs with thinning of the venous wall and the formation of nodes of them.The nodes are formed as a result of the pathology of the venous walls, as well as the insufficiency of their valves due to a genetic defect.

  • Significant weight gain;
  • hereditary predisposition;
  • Hormonal effect (pregnancy and taking hormonal medicines).

Minor causes of varicose veins

Obstacles in blood flow through veinsSSuch obstacles can be: thrombus, uterus, tumor.

Stress and nervous disordersSThey affect the condition of the blood vessels.There are nerve endings in the vein wall that give them elasticity.As the pressure increases in them, the effects of various toxins and alcohol, the lumen of the vessels loses the tone and expands.

Anastomic arterialSSuch turns can be formed due to pressure in the area of blood arterial cell renewal.

SportingSAt risk, lovers will pull the bar into the gym.In the presence of a predisposition to varicose veins, the overload of the feet with excessive exercise and lifting weights is prohibited.

Unexplained clothes and shoesSStrong tight clothes, like tight jeans, can cause varicose nets.The tight shoes and high heels are also harmful.When choosing shoes, give preference with a wide sole, the wider the sole, the less the load on the legs.Walking and balancing thin styles, we put a vein with a huge load and if you add heavy bags from the grocery store to your heels, then you will not envy the veins.

Proper blood flow, when the blood flows through the veins of the legs from the bottom up, this is achieved with the help of several factors: blood pressure from the arteries, contraction of the muscles of the legs during movements and the presence of valves in the veins that prevent blood flow.The inability of these valves to perform its function causes a violation of the venous blood flow, which leads to overvoltage of the veins.Therefore, the blood flow becomes chaotic, the blood stagnates in the veins of the lower limbs (especially in the subcutaneous), the pressure in them increases, the walls of the vessels begin to expand and refine.
