The wearing of compression linen is considered a convenient method of healing the disease.
Stockings, golfs or tights help get rid of swelling, soreness and fatigue of the lower extremities at home.The pressure exerted by specialized linen affects the damaged veins, providing the result necessary for the disease.Manufacturers produce many models that can be used in the treatment of varicose veins in both women and men.
Modern non -surgical methods
The methods and means of influence on varicose veins over time have become easier and in most cases pass on an outpatient basis, at home.If necessary, hospitalization takes several days, which does not prevent the patient from quickly returning to his usual lifestyle.
Sclerotherapy
During the manipulation, a specialized drug is introduced into Vienna - Sclerosant, which glues it from the inside.After some time, the problem vein disappears, the blood flow is redistributed through healthy vessels.
During one procedure, four drug injections can be used.The number of sessions is determined by the degree of growth of the vascular mesh on the lower extremities.After manipulation, compression linen is put on the leg.Patients should walk the next five hours.A feature will eliminate the likelihood of blood clots in deeply located veins.Compression is necessary over the next calendar month.
To treat pathology means to get rid of varicose expansion, stabilize the circulation of blood flow, stop pain, convulsions and a rapid onset of fatigue.The emerging pigment spots along the therapy disappears spontaneously over time.
The method guarantees a long -term therapeutic effect.With successful therapy - a lifelong result.In about 25% of patients, varicose expansion is not a complete cure.Sclerotherapy suppresses the main symptomatic signs of the disease, but does not allow the problem completely.
The treatment method is prohibited for use in the following indicators:
- with high sensitivity to sclerosant;
- at the time of therapy with anti -inflammatory and hormonal drugs;
- with obesity of various degrees;
- purulent-inflammatory diseases of the dermis or with advanced cellulite on the lower extremities;
- during pregnancy and thrombophlebitis.

- the lack of need for hospitalization, preserving the habitual lifestyle for a sick lifestyle;
- obtaining a medical result immediately after the operation, without the formation of scars;
- treatment with minimal discomfort;
- The ability to get rid of varicose expansion simultaneously on several veins.
The negative aspects of therapy are characterized by the inability to obtain a lifelong result - the maximum effect in men and women is achieved when the initial source of the disease is eliminated.The problem provokes round -the -clock wearing of compression linen, with removal only for a while of hygienic manipulations.
Radio frequency coagulation (ablation) of varicose veins (RCK, RFA)
The coagulation method of varicose veins with radio frequency waves has been practiced in the country recently.Therapy is used for large veins - a special catheter is introduced through a puncture in the dermis, brewing them from the inside.The result is monitored using sensors located on a manipulation technique.
The therapeutic advantage of the method is presented:
- minimal uncomfortable sensations;
- short -term operation;
- short rehabilitation period;
- lack of scars and scars;
- The low indicators of the likely relapse of the disease are no more than 10%.
The disadvantages of the rh include: burns of the skin, thrombosis, blisters and the occurrence of inguinal reflux.
The postoperative period has its own requirements:
- Compression knitwear is used in the first forty minutes after surgery.The patient must walk all this time to prevent blood clots.In the future, specialized underwear is worn for two weeks, with mandatory walks on foot for an hour daily.
- Patients are not recommended for raising heavy objects, sports, cycling, training on simulators, long -term stay in an upright position.A visit to baths, steamers, saunas - any exposure to high temperatures on problem -based lower limbs falls under the ban.
- A few days after the operation, the veins are scanning with ultrasound - to confirm the result.
Laser treatment
The exposure of a beam on varicose expansion also seals a problem vein.The method does not require surgical cuts: a special fiber is introduced through a puncture in Vienna.The subsequent spasm of the vessel blocks the problem area, the vein is excluded from the circulatory system and is gradually replaced by connecting tissues.
The level of influence of EVLK is higher than that of Sclerosant therapy, which allows you to get a final result equal to a surgical surgery to remove veins.
The treatment process is recognized as the smallest and safe option that allows you to get rid of varicose expansion on the lower extremities.
The operation lasts about half an hour, the recovery time takes no more than four hours.The use of local anesthesia allows the appointment of a method to patients for whom other options are prohibited.After the operation, the patient independently leaves the clinic and is ready to return to the workplace.

- Lack of cuts - the result is an excellent cosmetic effect;
- The minimum operation time - with complex options, manipulation takes no more than one hour;
- Accelerated postoperative period - the operation does not require sick leave, labor activity does not suffer;
- The method is carried out under the control of ultrasound equipment, which improves the quality of therapy, reduces the likelihood of postoperative complications;
- After the operation, there are no hematomas.
The disadvantages of the method include:
- The price per operation;
- large diameters of damaged veins require surgical sections;
- Large veins can recover over time and return to general blood flow.
Surgical treatment
Varicose expansion of deeply located veins requires a radical operation - phlebectomy.Removal is carried out in the absence of suppuration, rashes or wound surfaces on the skin.The operation lasts about two hours.After it, small scars remain on the dermis - up to five millimeters.
The method is recommended for the following indications:
- with trophic lesions of the skin of the lower extremities;
- pathological expansion of veins;
- vast varicose lesion;
- With problems with free blood movement through the veins.
Many patients are able to cure an anomaly with a radical method, but the remaining scars and a long postoperative time attribute the operation to the latter from the list of preferences.
