What is lower body edema?

If there is any problem in the body, the cause must be found and treated in time. So what is the cause of lower body edema? Pregnant women may experience edema, which is normal. But for ordinary people, if they have lower body edema, they should be alert to the reason that venous return is affected. Especially for those who sit and work for a long time, it is easy to have poor venous blood circulation, which will not only cause edema but also may lead to varicose veins.

What are the causes of lower body edema? What bad daily habits should you pay attention to when the disease occurs? Let's follow the editor to learn about it. I hope that through a simple introduction, I can help all patients get rid of the troubles of the disease as soon as possible.

The causes of sudden edema in the lower body are actually very common. There are two main causes: one is due to poor venous return, and the other is local edema caused by poor renal function. These two types of edema are actually worthy of everyone's attention. Of course, the treatments for the two types of edema are also different. The following two methods can be used to treat different edema symptoms respectively.

The lower body edema caused by poor venous return can be treated with Chinese medicine: a small amount of rutin, maltose, honglian, lentil, asarum, perilla seed, angelica, and curculigo. Grind the herbs into powder, make it into a paste with high-proof liquor, and apply it to the edematous areas of the lower body. This can effectively treat the onset of lower body edema in a short period of time. At the same time, it can also promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, promote diuresis and reduce swelling.

When edema occurs due to poor kidney function, you should take medicine to eliminate blood stasis in the body. You can use Chinese medicine: appropriate amounts of Stephania tetrandra, ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, Angelica sinensis, wax gourd peel, and Achyranthes bidentata. Wash and dry the wax gourd peel. Boil one bowl of water with three bowls of water. Take an appropriate amount every day. Then grind other medicinal materials into powder, and use rice wine or high-proof liquor to make a paste. Apply it to the edematous areas of the lower body and the epidermis of the kidney area respectively. This can also effectively nourish the kidney and eliminate dampness, and can have a good therapeutic effect on the edematous areas of the lower body.

In addition to the above two Chinese medicines that can effectively treat lower body edema, patients need to improve their daily bad eating habits in time to prevent the recurrence of such diseases, resolutely stop taking spicy and irritating foods, eat more fruits and vegetables, and drink more winter melon soup on a regular basis, because winter melon has good diuretic and swelling-reducing effects, which can relieve the lower body edema. Therefore, treatment should be combined with diet.

The above are the main causes and treatments of lower body edema. I believe that through the above brief introduction, everyone can fully realize the importance of treating lower body edema for the patient's physical health recovery. Only by clearly recognizing the risk of the disease can the treatment of lower body edema symptoms be implemented as soon as possible.
