Faced with varicose veins, it should be understood that the greatest danger in the complications. These cause dilation of the superficial veins that have lost the original options and are life-threatening.
Stretched vienna will not come in normal condition and will not disappear by using the tablets, ointments, herbs, and even more conspiracies, and other non-conventional methods of treatment.
Complete treatment of varicose veins from possible only in the treatment of varicose veins and venous discharges. Some methods of alternative medicine can provide only the prevention of the disease, relieve pain, slow the progression of varicose veins.
Welcome to the website dedicated to phenomenon of sleep and quality of life. I hope the information will be useful.
Modern medicine and vascular surgery until today is the only panacea and they have effective cosmetic and functional treatment methods. But all in turn.
With taking internal medicines you can get rid of varicose veins forever
Fact. Modern pharmaceutical market offers a wide variety of drugs. All of these have similar substances (flavonoids plants), and a lot of low efficacy and side effects. Tonic for the veins does not relieve you of varicose veins, but by the severity, oedema and nocturnal cramps are likely.
Creams and gels cure from the varicose veins
Fact. The sellers and the producers promise in their ads high efficiency, but we need to realise that gels and creams don't get away from varicose veins. The rubbing promotes venous outflow, acts as a light massage and has a calming effect on the skin during the initial stage of the disease.
When varicose veins start, some creams and ointments can cause dermatitis and allergies, which exacerbates the problem. With thrombophlebitis appoint application of heparin media, dilution of the blood and contribute to the elimination of inflammation.
Thanks to the active advertising enjoy great popularity gels and creams with leeches. According to doctors, the shamanic products have nothing to do neither with the leeches, either to the drugs. Waste of money and time, has a place of auto-suggestion.
Leeches cure varicose veins
Fact. The saliva of leeches rich hirudin, which dilutes the blood. Exactly this fact and serves as the main point, because ignorant people are resorting to leeches in varicose veins, confusing it with thrombophlebitis.
The liquefaction of the blood will not affect varicose veins, the cause of which is the increase of the vascular lumen and failure of the valve. About the risk that represents this treatment, silent.
The result leech therapy may become pigmentation of the skin in the area of the bite, prolonged bleeding from wounds. That in the best case. In the worst case — to develop dermatitis, limfostazom, PHLEBOTHROMBOSIS, and even gangrene of the limbs.
In the composition of the saliva of leeches a lot of allergens that can be with chronic venous stasis can cause inflammatory and allergic reactions, destroying the skin and aggravating varicose veins.
Phlebology recognize this treatment honest quackery, dangerous for the health of the patient. This treatment is particularly contraindicated when trophic ulcers.
Compressive knitted resolves the cause of varicose veins and the disease
Fact. Application of elastic compression medical appear in the early stages of the disease, up to the most radical measures. Compression extensive varicose veins veins, contributes to the redistribution of blood flow from the affected veins in the deep, faces a stagnation of blood in the veins.
With this elastic compression does not solve the cause of the disease, but only simulates the situation when the vienna "stick" or be removed. To select the correct size and recommend wearing only may Phlebology.
The methods of treatment of varicose veins
In our days the methods of treatment of varicose veins simplified and almost all done in outpatient clinics, if you require hospitalization, only for one or two days. The main types of treatment: sclerotherapy, laser photocoagulation, radiofrequency ablation, and surgical procedures.
Our experienced specialists are often different methods are used immediately. Consider the most common, the advantages and disadvantages.
Sclerotherapy
It is a non-surgical method of removal of the patients with thrombosis. The container is inserted sklerozant, special liquid medicine, belonging to a vein inside, which over time disappears. The blood stops flowing to the affected area and redistributed by healthy veins.
Hardening was submitted at the beginning of the last century, currently, the process has become less dangerous and traumatic. Sklerozant is inserted into the affected vein using thin needles or microcatheters. A session can take up to 4 injections, and the number of sessions is determined by the degree of severity of the disease.
After the injection of the drug in the leg of the patient coated compressive knitted or crocheted, of it is recommended to walk (up to 5 hours), to avoid thrombosis of deep veins. Elastic compression must wear during the whole therapeutic course and at the end (up to 4 weeks).
Sclerotherapy improves blood circulation, dilation of the blood vessels disappear, pass swelling, pain, cramps, and fatigue. Spots that appear over is eliminated of vienna, with time to pass.
Sclerotherapy includes:
- Directly the same the sclerotherapy,
- ECHO-sclerotherapy (sklerozant is inserted right on target, thanks to ultrasound, allowing see venous lumen),
- Foam-form sclerotherapy. Sklerozant turns into foam, you enter the ship, which allows you to "stick" closed and even large veins.
Sclerotherapy guarantees a great therapeutic and aesthetic effect, and in some cases lifelong. Only 25% of patients with active varicose veins can not count on the complete cure. With the onset of the disease have been significantly reduced.
Contraindications:
- Individual intolerance to the sklerozant.
- Taking anti-inflammatory and hormonal drugs.
- The excessive weight.
- Started cellulite in areas affected veins.
- Inflammatory and purulent diseases of the skin of the feet.
- Pregnancy.
- Thrombophlebitis.
Advantages:
- Healthcare allows you to save a normal life.
- The aesthetic effect is visible immediately, the scars does not remain.
- Minimal pain during the treatment.
- You can at the same time to eliminate a lot of veins.
Cons:
There is no guarantee lifelong result. To achieve this, you need to start treatment with you to troubleshoot the cause of the appearance of varicose veins.
Around the clock wearing compression stockings, you can take in a short period of time for hygiene.
Laser therapy — "office surgery"
Coagulation — laser therapy varicose veins with the closure of the lumen. It is the newest development of German-specific and is called endovenous laser (intravascular) or endovasal coagulation (EVLT or EVLT). Currently, it is widely applied in leading clinics of Russia and abroad.
When EVLT is going on "drinking champagne" (eliminate) broken veins through a high-energy laser without incisions. For thermal effect of a laser into a vein, the special fiber through the hole, it happens spasm of vienna, the lumen through the closing. Vienna is excluded from the circulation of the blood, and is then replaced by connective tissue.
The degree of exposure to EVLK in patients of the vienna higher than the sclerotherapy, and allows you to achieve a result, suitable for classical vein removal.
Intravascular coagulation is recognized as the most less traumatic and from the modern way of treatment of varicose veins.
Minimum expenditure of time in surgery, (about 40 minutes) and the recovery after that (up to 4 hours), local anesthesia — all of these factors are allowed to be called laser therapy "office surgery". The patient after the surgery can leave the clinic with yourself and return to the workplace.
The advantages of.
Endovascular laser obliteration — a worthy alternative solution for the surgery:
- Excellent aesthetic effect — during the operation, there are no incisions.
- Short-term EVLT – the process doesn't take more than an hour.
- Quick recovery, which gives you the ability to not discontinue the professional activity.
- Photocoagulation laser is controlled by the indications of ULTRASOUND, which improves the quality of treatment, postoperative complications, minimizes to a minimum.
- No bruises and bruises.
Cons:
- The operation cost is very high
- Large diameter of vienna does not allow you to do it without incisions.
- Vienna large diameter can pry later and return.
VNUS. The radiofrequency ablation
The new method developed by the international scientific community with the aim to find the most perfect treatment of varicose veins in the legs. In North America and Europe method is applied over 10 years, in Russia put into practice large clinics recently.
VNUS — endovasal method, is used for the treatment of the affected varicose veins the large veins. In the hole is inserted rf probe, "medicandi" vein with the help of microwave exposure. The probe has sensors that measure the usefulness and effectiveness of the thermal exposure to the venous walls.
Advantages:
- Outpatient conditions.
- Local anesthesia.
- Storage disability.
- Without incisions.
- Quick reset of the patient (30 minutes after surgery). After a week, you can do sports.
- The absence of pain and haematomas, in most cases.
- High security.
Cons:
- The high cost of.
- Can occur burns, passed quickly.
- Reduces the concentration of attention on the day of surgery (you cannot drive a car and engage in other activities that require constant concentration).
In the USA, the radiofrequency ablation is used much less often than laser photocoagulation. This is explained by the high cost, when almost equal results. Photocoagulation gives a higher percentage than the complete disappearance of the veins thanks to the introduction of a new generation of laser, providing the highest efficiency and the lack of hematoma.
Radical techniques
When you receive the thrombophlebitis, eczema, trophic ulcers sclerotherapy and other non-surgical procedures it is too late. In this case the doctors, possibly, will test on surgical techniques, combining them with is sclerotherapy.
Many clinics offer high-tech microsurgical techniques for removal of the patients with thrombosis, less traumatic (allow a small incision to remove the entire affected vein), do not leave marks and scars, insufficient (in 40 minutes, the patient can go home).
In accordance with phlebologists, they fear the removal of varicose affected veins not worth it. Filled with the blood of vienna, constitute a serious threat to health and life. After removing them it normalizes blood circulation, healthy veins removed unwanted load.
In conclusion, the article on the modern methods of treatment of varicose veins, I want to propose the Test. Answers to questions that will not take more than 5 minutes of your time, but will allow you to identify the symptoms of the disease varicose veins the legs and the degree of risk.
