VARICOSE VEINS AND THEIR TREATMENT AT PHYSIOTHERAPY CLINIC IN GURGAON

Veins that are twisted and swollen are known as varicose veins. Varicose veins can develop near the surface of the skin (superficial veins). The veins in the legs are most usually affected by varicose veins. Because standing and walking put pressure on the lower body's veins, this is the case.

 Varicose veins and spider veins, a typical, minor version of varicose veins, are cosmetic problems for many people. Varicose veins can be painful and uncomfortable for some people. Varicose veins can sometimes lead to major complications.

 Self-care or medical procedures to seal or eliminate veins may be used in the treatment. But Physiotherapy treatment is more recommended in this case. And physiotherapy for varicose veins in Gurgaon has physiotherapists who keep track of your progress with medical records until you've fully recovered.

 SYMPTOMS OF VARICOSE VEINS:

Varicose veins may not be painful. Varicose veins can be identified by:

 The dark purple or blue veins

On the legs, veins that seem twisted and bulging, frequently resembling cords

When varicose veins cause pain, the following signs and symptoms may appear:

●     Legs that be achy or heavy

●     Lower leg-burning, throbbing, muscle cramps, and swelling

●     Pain that gets worse after a lengthy period of sitting or standing

●     Itching in or around one or more veins

●     Varicose veins cause changes in skin pigmentation.

 Spider veins are smaller versions of varicose veins. Spider veins are red or blue veins that run closer to the surface of the skin. Spider veins can be present on both the legs and the face. They come in various sizes and resemble spider webs.

WHAT CAUSES VARICOSE VEINS?

Varicose veins are caused by weakened or broken valves. Blood travels from the heart to the rest of the body via arteries. The heart receives blood from the rest of the body through veins. Leg veins must work against gravity to return blood to the heart.

 Lower leg muscle contractions operate as pumps, and elastic vein walls aid blood flow back to the heart. Vein valves open as blood flows toward the heart and close as blood flows backward. Blood can flow backward and pool in the veins if these valves are weak or broken, stretching or twisting the veins.

WHAT ARE THE FACTORS THAT INCREASE THE CHANCES OF GETTING VARICOSE VEINS:

Factors that increase your chances of getting sick are many.  Varicose veins are caused by a combination of factors, including:

1.    Age:

The vein valves that govern blood flow wear down with age. The valves eventually wear down to the point that some blood can flow back into the veins and accumulate.

 2.    Sex:

The illness affects more women than men. Because female hormones relax vein walls, they could be a factor before a menstrual period, during pregnancy, or throughout menopause. Hormone therapy, such as birth control tablets, has been linked to an increased risk of varicose veins.

 3.    Pregnancy:

The volume of blood in the body expands during pregnancy. This adjustment helps the baby grow, but it can also cause leg veins to expand.

 4.    Family Background:

If other members of your family have varicose veins, you're more likely to have them as well.

 5.    Obesity:

Obesity puts additional strain on veins.

 6.    Long-period standing or sitting:

Long periods of standing or sitting are not recommended. Blood flow is improved by movement.

WHAT ARE THE COMPLICATIONS OF VARICOSE VEINS?

Varicose veins can cause several uncommon complications.

1.    Ulcers:

Near varicose veins, especially around the ankles, painful ulcers can occur on the skin. An ulcer usually starts as a discolored patch on the skin. If you suspect you've acquired a leg ulcer, see your doctor as soon as possible.

2.    Blood clots:

Clots in the blood Deep veins in the legs can occasionally expand, causing leg pain and edema. Consistent leg pain or swelling should be addressed by a doctor since it could indicate a blood clot.

3.    Bleeding:

Veins near the surface of the skin can rupture on occasion. Even relatively modest bleeding is frequently the result, medical help is required.

 HOW CAN VARICOSE VEINS BE PREVENTED?

 Varicose veins can be prevented by improving blood flow and muscle tone. Varicose veins can be prevented with the same techniques that are used to alleviate the discomfort. Take a look at this:

●     High heels and restrictive hosiery should be avoided.

●     Regularly switching your sitting or standing position

●     A diet rich in fiber and low in salt

●     Exercising

●     When seated or lying down, raise your legs.

●     Weight control

HOW DOES PHYSIOTHERAPY IN GURGAON TREATS VARICOSE VEINS?

There are several treatments that physio health plus give to a patient to treat their varicose veins. Some are them are:

     1.    Ankle flexion with knee bend:

 Return to your backside on the floor. Pull one knee into your chest slowly, holding your leg behind your knee (holding on top of the kneecap puts undue pressure on this delicate joint). Now, numerous times point and flex your foot. Slowly and firmly tighten the muscles of your calves and the tendons around your ankle, rather than flapping your foot around loosely. Replace the opposite leg and repeat the process.

2.    Leg lifting:

Place your hands beneath your buttocks while lying on your back. Keep your buttocks pressed into the floor and your lower back against it. Lift one leg at a time and hold in an elevated position perpendicular to the floor until you feel blood flow back up your calves and thighs. Rep with your opposite leg. To enhance leg circulation even further, elevate your legs and rotate your ankles.

 3.    Pedaling:

Lay completely flat on your back. Extend your arms to your sides. To avoid lower back pain, you might arrange them beneath your buttocks. Lift your legs off the ground and pedal them like a bicycle. The more you elevate your legs, the better your circulation will be.
