Varicose is a disease that is common in adults, to which women aged 40-60 are mainly subjected.The disease is characterized by the instability of the valves of the blood vessels of the lower legs and the hip joint, as well as the dysfunction of the blood flow and the pathological venous expansion.
The walls of the blood vessels in different circumstances are not able to perform its function and their natural elasticity is completely lost.
18-20% of the population suffer from the disease and approximately 50% of patients in the preliminary stage do not think of the fact that they have a serious illness.
- When the structural structure of the vascular wall is brokenAnd their tone is reduced, the deep veins of the legs are unevenly enlarged.This pathology actively contributes to excessive tension to the lower limbs.
- Blood rising along the rivers of the artery of a large circle of circulationFrom the left ventricle, saturated with oxygen and nutrients and absorbing carbon dioxide and metabolic products, it must be lifted upstairs through the veins through the right ventricle in the lungs to get rid of unnecessary and get a new part of the necessary legs.
- So the blood rises, does not turn back, there are valves in the veins of the legs.In the varicose veins, the valves do not stuck tightly and in this connection the blood does not go completely, but only goes down and begins to stagnate.Then comes another part for it and failure arises in the bloodstream.
- In connection with the placement of blood in the vessels of the veins, the red blood clots gradually formconsisting mainly of red blood cells.The clot forms a tail and a head that is attached to the vascular wall, and the tail remains to glue the platelets.
- The clouds that appear for a long time are attached to the walls of advanced veinsAnd they will become a very dangerous factor, since the blood clot, which broke away and enters the bloodstream, is dangerous as it clogs an important artery.
Stages of the disease
Different experts distinguish different stages of varicose veins, but the main stages are considered to be the main ones, plus the initial when the disease manifests quietly and it is only possible to look at it if we listen to the "signals" of the body:
- Compensation stageSDuring it, there is a general increase in veins, which does not cause the patient's allegations but acts as a cosmetic flaw.
- SubcompensionSThe presence of elongated veins near the upper layer of the skin is associated with an unpleasant sensation of weight and rupture, itching, high swelling, convulsive contractions, paresthesia and high irritability.
- Steel decompensationSIn such a situation, there is a high swelling of the legs, which is complemented by constant convulsive contractions and blood vessels under the skin.In addition, varicose veins become thick in structure and clearly stand out above the top layer of the skin.
- StaircaseSIt is associated with the appearance of trophic ulcers, thrombophlebitis and phlebotrombosis, external ugliness, which becomes the cause of the inferiority complex.
In fact, starting with the second stage of the disease and, it is better, and 1 should consult a phlebologist, since the disease is quite serious and, the earlier it takes the necessary measures, the more progression to the next stages of the disease will stop.
It should be remembered that every stage of the disease is dangerous for adverse effects on the body completely, not just the limbs.To know what to do with varicose veins, you need to visit a phlebologist.

- Pigmentation.
- Seal.
- Trophic ulcers.
- Disorders of skin nutrition.
When external signs of the disease occur, therefore fever or lethargy, the disease goes into the phase of complications.There are extremely rare symptoms - bleeding during rupture of the nodes.Most often they appear at night.
With the prevalence of advanced pathology of varicose veins, the symptoms are immobilized and often cause subsequent damage.High swelling does not allow it to sleep and deprives peace of mind.
Sometimes the symptoms are so intense and painful that this will affect the central nervous system and the overall tone of the patient.In such a situation, decisive therapeutic measures are needed as the pathology develops only.
The causes of the disease
- The causes of varicose veins include- Long standing wiring, obesity, pregnancy, prolonged wearing of socks or socks with a tight elastic band, hereditary weakness of the connective tissue.Everything is attributed to the initial factors for the progress of the disease.
- Varicose veins during pregnancy are often foundOf the lower limbs, but sometimes the veins appear on the external genital organs.Although varicose veins are often just a cosmetic defect, during pregnancy this can become a painful process.

- Varicose is formedWith incorrect blood flow to the veins.Experts have examined the causes of this disease, unusual for other living things to the extent that people are sick.
Such reasons include:- Directing.Scientists explain the disease of the feet with excessive pressure.A pillar in the blood goes to the myocardium.Particularly dangerous for those who have been on the feet for a long time.
- Genetic locationSMany people have such a disease - a factor transmitted by parents.A similar likelihood of the disease can be avoided if the occurrence of concomitant factors.Hereditary varicose veins are common in childhood.
- Job specificity, passive lifestyleSWhen a person moves a little, the likelihood of the disease appears.Some doctors are offered to name the "computer varicose veins" disease.
- Criminal in the endocrine and hormonal systems.Due to the characteristics of the female body, the period of hormonal disorders will cause blood staging.The most favorable time is puberty, pregnancy, period after birth, menopause.Women turn to phlebologists several times more often.
- Clothes in the leakage of blood through the veinsSAppear as a mechanical formation - blood clot, uterus, tumor.
- Stressful situations and nervous disordersaffect the condition of the blood vessels.There are nerve endings in the venous wall that give elasticity.During the increase in the pressure vein, the effect of toxic substances, alcoholic beverages, lumen of the vessels loses the tone and expands.
- Anastomic arterialSThey are formed due to pressure on the renewal of blood arterial cells.
- The muscle pump is located in the muscles of the foot IKRWho needs activation all the time.It is extremely important to monitor the state of health, not to allow prolonged diseases - cough and attack.

- The drug includes pharmacological groupsAble to normal blood circulation, strengthens the vascular walls, guarantees the elasticity of the walls of the veins and in time to prevent pathogenic blood clots.
- Particularly popular in the characteristic clinical pathology is the method of sclerotherapy, which provides under the influence of a special substance, sticking to the walls of the damaged vessel and its subsequent obstacle.The clinical and cosmetological effect will be favorable, in addition, there are almost no contraindications.
- If you use radical therapy methods. The operation is now popular nowTroyanov - Trendellenburg, its aim is to become an artificially large subcutaneous vein of the thighs and to eliminate subcutaneous varicose veins of the limbs.After surgery, you need a long restoration, but the effect will be positive as long remission will come.
- Laser therapy is performed by intravascular influenceThermal laser energy to the wall of the veins and blood clots attached to it replaced with connective tissue.

Otherwise, there may be such adverse effects:
- trophic ulcers;
- trophic eczema;
- open bleeding from nodes;
- deep vein thrombosis;
- post -clombophlegitic disease;
- constant venous failure;
- Different trophic ulcer.
One of the most difficult complications is the sharp thrombophlebitis, which has the following signs:
- redness;
- pain;
- Tangible seals according to the subcutaneous vessels.
Varicose vein brombose is a common disease.This is the formation of blood clots in the legs in the lumen of deep veins.This disease is dangerous as it often occurs in completely healthy people.
