Varicocele is characterized by uneven intraluminal expansion of leg veins, appearance of their length, and increase in length.The disease gradually develops into a chronic course.
Women have three times higher veins than men.Among the stronger sexual representations, faces are susceptible to this disease, they love sports and distribute their legs to the greatest extent: football, tennis, basketball.
Why veins swell
There are three types of veins in the leg fabric: shallow, deep, connected shallow and deep veins.Each vein is a hollow tube, and blood flows from the tissues of the legs to the heart.There are no muscle cells on the walls of the veins, so the veins cannot contract to push blood higher.This task is performed by the skeletal muscles of the legs.Valves are located in the veins - they close the belt when reducing skeletal muscles, avoiding the reverse flow of blood.Each muscle contraction “pushed” the blood above.
When the valve flashes, a part of the blood flows, stagnates in Vienna, presses against its walls, and gradually stretches.The lumen of the vein expands and the walls stretch.This is the beginning of varicose veins.
Factors that cause disease:
- Genetic - Due to the inherent lack of collagen fibers, the walls of the veins are less elastic and easily stretched.
- The blood vessels in the legs are stuck in the veins of the legs, are overweight and obese, wear shoes over 3-4 cm, stand with certain professional women and sellers, chefs, lecturers or people sitting with office staff for a long time, chefs, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers, lecturers for a long time.
- Changes in hormone background: Increased progesterone content in pregnant women's blood makes the walls soft and stretch, so the risk of varicose veins increases dramatically during the child's period.
The first sign of varicose veins - How to miss it
Regarding the beginning of a varicose vein, the alarm is considered to be the moment when reticular varicose veins appear on the skin of the leg.This is not a beauty defect, but an onset of the disease!
At the same time or after a while, the second set of signs connects together - the feeling of heavy legs, the legs burst after standing for a long time or sitting in a chair.When a person starts walking, the severity feels lower: skeletal muscle pours on the stagnant blood, and the stretching of the venous walls is reduced.
Further development of the disease is manifested by edema on the legs - these are traces of the socks, relative to the thickening of the second leg, relative to the traces of the second leg.
Later, I noticed the pain in the calf muscles of the legs, fatigue during walking, dry skin and pigmentation, prominent varicose veins and the formation of nutritional ulcers.
When do you contact a vascular surgeon?
When the first vascular network and star appear, you should consult an expert and conduct ultrasound studies on the veins in the lower limbs when necessary and perform varicose veins on the veins.The earlier the diagnosis of varicose veins is, the more chances of stopping it in the initial stage.
