Have you stopped wearing skirts, shorts, and Sunday dresses because you are embarrassed about the bulging veins appearing beneath the skin in your legs? These bulging veins are called varicose veins. Varicose veins are swollen and inflamed blood vessels commonly found in the legs. The affected veins appear to be blue and purple and protrude on the skin. Apart from destroying the appearance of your legs, varicose veins may cause pain, numbness of the legs, and fatigue.
Here are some quick and easy tips on how to reduce the appearance of varicose veins:
Prolonged standing and sitting without breaks increase the pressure within the veins found in your legs. The blood also pools around this area. The increased pressure and poor blood circulation in the lower limbs weaken the veins and blood vessels, leading to swelling and inflammation. It results in varicose veins or aggravating deep vein thrombosis in Singapore.
Light activities that exercise the lower limbs like walking, cycling, and swimming improves the blood circulation in your legs. However, avoid weight-bearing exercises that put stress and pressure on the legs. Ask your vein doctor for suitable activities.
Excess weight puts pressure and stress on the lower limbs. It can aggravate varicose veins and deep vein thrombosis in Singapore. A similar thing happens if you frequently carry weights. Make sure to maintain a healthy weight and avoid carrying heavy objects. You can visit your vein clinic in Singapore for an accurate diagnosis of diseases linked to the development of varicose veins.
Compression stockings help with reducing the pressure and blood pooling in the legs. Your vein doctor may recommend compression stockings suited for you.
Vein clinics have treatments that will completely get rid of your varicose veins and deep vein thrombosis in Singapore.
