Methods that can help
prevent Varicose Vein

Varicose Vein is a progressive disease, so after its occurrence, the condition cannot be improved without surgical methods.

• 

  Exercise of moving the ankles up & down while sitting

  You must stand up and walk every 30 minutes, and should not sit with the legs crossed. While standing, try to exercise by standing on your toes.

• 

  Wear comfortable shoes

  Avoid wearing high heels or shoes that do not fit your feet, and wear shoes that tighten your feet or ankles with a strap.

• 

  Do not take a hot bath in the morning

  A hot bath in the morning will make you move with your blood vessels extended. If you need to take a hot bath in the morning due to unavoidable reasons, finish off the bath with a cold shower.

• 

  Improve Dietary Life and Maintain Proper Body Weight

  Reduce the intake of salt to maintain a low-salt diet as much as possible, and eat high-fiber diet to prevent the legs from swelling.

• 

  Prevent Constipation

  Constipation is a factor that increases the abdominal pressure and the pressure on the veins on the lower limbs.

• 

  Avoid Tight Clothes

  Tight pants or underwear can inhibit the blood circulation.

• 

  Avoid staying at a hot place

  Varicose vein can occur from trauma, so it is important to check the accurate medical history.

• 

  Consistent walking exercise

  The calf muscles that are weakened from a lack of exercise prevent the calves from playing the role of a secondary heart, so varicose vein may occur from weakening of the strength to push the venous blood from the ankles to the heart.

• 

  The legs should be placed higher than the heart when resting or sleeping.

  Numbness and cramps can be reduced by placing the legs higher than the heart, but this cannot be the fundamental treatment.
