This spooky season is meant to be filled with fun decorations, sweet desserts, and funny costumes; not scary varicose veins. So, don’t let venous conditions prevent you from taking your kids and grandkids trick-or-treating or out to a pumpkin patch and cider mill.
Don’t be spooked by treatment
Varicose veins are a venous condition, caused by weak or damaged vein valves, that affects about 20% of all adults. But diagnosis does not mean you have to accept venous insufficiency as a permanent part of your life. In fact, the sooner venous conditions are treated, the easier it will be to prevent them from progressing into more serious stages of vein disease.
Whether you’re a young parent or a grandparent, it can be extremely frustrating living with swelling, uncomfortable veins day after day. Let’s face it: For many women, men, and elderly individuals, varicose veins negatively affect both mental and physical health drastically.
Treatment for varicose veins aims to relieve symptoms and pain, prevent future complications and improve the overall appearance of leg veins. The following list names just a few precautions you can take to help reduce your symptoms. Be sure to seek professional treatment to prevent progression and to address all your concerns thoroughly.
Helpful tips for temporary relief
- Regularly switch between standing or sitting to encourage blood flow.
- Elevate your legs and feet above your heart periodically.
- Wear compression stockings to promote better muscle and blood movement.
- Wear flat or low-heeled shoes to make sure calf muscles are contracting.
- Monitor weight since obesity can place additional strain on veins.
- Move more blood through your veins with moderate physical activity.
