Surface vessels are referred to as a vascular disease, which are characterized by a violation of venous blood flow, the thinning of veins, an increase in their lumen and pathological expansion.The ships of the legs are most often affected.Most of the time women get sick.The development of complications of varicose veins of the veins of the lower extremities is due to premature or improper treatment.
Description of the complications
Complications are locally and frequently with varicose veins.The consequences of the disease can be:
- Faring syndrome.
- Phlebitis.
- Most of the time, hyperhidrosis of the affected limb (increased sweating) is observed.
- Constipation of veins on a thrombus.
- The formation of trophic ulcers.
- Chronic venous deficiency.It is characterized by a violation of the process of venous blood.
- Surface -Eczema.It develops as a result of the microbes under the skin and is characterized by inflammation of the surrounding tissue.The cause can itch serious skin.Signs of eczema are reddening of the skin, an increase in local temperature, burning, itching, peeling, swelling of the soft tissue and the presence of a bladder rash.
- Bleeding.
- The formation of non -pigmented atrophic plaques.
- Occlusion of the ship.
- Erysipelas.
- Change the skin color.
- Tissue seal (subcutaneous fat).
- Lung artery thromboembolism.
swelling
Edema is the most common complication of the disease.You can appear between 1 and 2 levels.Edema have the following characteristic features:
- In the early stages, they appear in the standing or seating position with a long stay.This is due to the fact that the drainage of venous blood is difficult, which leads to an increase in the perpetermability.The plasma impregnates the wall of the vessel and goes into the surrounding substances, which leads to swelling.
- They are reduced in the person's position.
- They mainly arise in the afternoon.
- The most expressed in the area of the legs.Office of the ankle can occur.
- They are combined with severity in the legs, pain, itching, faster fatigue and nightly cramps.
- In the stadium of the decompensation you become constant and do not disappear in a lying position.
- Are white and blue.Most of the time, milk edema is observed with this disease.Blue edema indicate thrombosis and ischemia of tissues.Then the skin of the patients with varicose veins acquires a black shade due to tissue necrosis.
phlebitis
The complications of the varicose veins of the lower extremities include phlebitis.This is acute or chronic inflammation of the vein wall.The outer shell of the vessel is most often affected.The signs of phlebitis pain in the place of the localization of the ship, the tension of the limb, reddening and compression of the skin, the presence of red stripes, the general discomfort and an increase in body temperature.Chronic phlebitis continues with deleted symptoms.
Thrombophlebitis
Terrible complications are throm blue biatis.It is characterized by the presence of a thrombus (blood clot) and the simultaneous inflammation of the vessel.Most of the time, only 1 limb is affected.Most of the time, this complication develops at 40-50 years.The manifestations of thrombophlebitis to varicose veins are shaking frost, fever, in the leg, swelling (after squeezing the tissue, deepening residues), the cyanosis of the skin, the palpation pain, local hyperthermia and the swelling of the surface veins.
thrombosis
The thrombosis includes complications with varicose veins.With this pathology, a blood clot forms in the lumen of the vessel, which is attached to the venous wall.A blood clot can block the lumen of the vessel and produce the blood drainage.The formation of a blood clot contributes to slowing the blood flow, the lack of venous flaps and the thickening of the blood.
Trophile ulcers type
Against the background of violations of venous blood flow, tissue nutrition worsens.The skin becomes thinner and tight, which increases the risk of damage.Under ischeman conditions, even the slightest damage (scratches) can cause the formation of a trophic ulcer.These defects are also formed with tissue necrosis.Usually ulcers occur with the expansion of veins that are complicated by chronic venous failure.
In most cases, the legs are affected.Before the occurrence of an ulcer, the atrophy precedes tissue against which a deep defect is formed.At first it is superficial, but then it spreads to the subcutaneous tissue.Several defects can merge and large priorities.Urbanity can be made more difficult by astructed skin damage, inflammation of the perioste, arthritis and osteomyelitis.
Thromboembolism of the artery
The thrombboembolism of the lung artery is the most dangerous complication for varicose veins in the lower extremities.As a result of separating a fragment of a thrombus and the blocking of the main vessels.This condition is characterized by:
- Shortness of breath;
- Blend of the skin;
- Cough;
- Inhibition of consciousness;
- Sweat;
- Increasing body temperature;
- falling blood pressure.
In pulmonary embolism there is a high probability of death.
Venous bleeding
The cause of the bleeding is the thinning of the vessel wall.In the event of damage to surface veins, it is most frequently short.The blood is dark red and flows slowly.Additional symptoms are the pale of the skin, a quick heartbeat and adynamies.The most dangerous inner bleeding from deep veins.
How to avoid negative consequences
In order to avoid complications of varicose veins of the lower extremities, it is necessary to start the treatment in time and to stick to the prescription of a doctor.Self -medicine is unacceptable.The therapy for varicose veins includes:
- Elimination of risk factors (rejection of smoking and alcohol, increase in motor activity, reduction in static stress, rejection of the sedentary work, correction of body weight, normalization of the hormonal background, rejection of lifting weights, wearing shoes with a high head and tight linen, normalization of blood coagulation).
- Physiotherapy sports lessons (exercise groups).
- Normalization of food.In the nutrition of patients there should be products that are rich in vitamin C.
- Wear of compression lines.
- The use of folk remedies (compressed with bitter Wormwood, infusions and decoctions based on herbs).Calendula, chamomile, a series, lemonnik, lemon balm and Hawthorn are used for varicose veins.
