What to do if your child has varicose veins

Varicose veins in children are usually caused by genetics. Varicose veins can also have a certain impact on people. If the disease occurs in the legs, it will also have a certain impact on the patient's walking function. Therefore, timely treatment is very necessary after varicose veins occur. So, what methods can be used to treat varicose veins in children? The following will introduce you to the relevant knowledge.

1. Treatment methods

Varicose veins of the lower limbs can be treated by wearing elastic stockings, injecting sclerosing agents, surgical stripping, etc. Deep venous valve insufficiency can be treated by valve repair surgery and laparoscopic perforator ligation, etc. Varicose veins in the lower limbs may also indicate the presence of other diseases, and the primary disease needs to be actively treated; if the deep veins have poor venous return, surgical treatment of the superficial veins should be more cautious.

1. Soak wolfberries in wine and rub it on your face once every night. It will be completely healed in half a year.

2. Bring safflower, angelica, Achyranthes bidentata and Chuanxiong to a boil over high heat. The ratio of medicine to water is 1 (medicine): 40 (water). Then pour the medicine into the foot basin (the basin should be small and deep, with water reaching the ankles), put your legs over the basin, and when the water is big enough for your feet, it will start to burn you. There is also acupoint massage after perming.

Third, select rhubarb, mash it, wrap it with gauze, and put it in a basin. Boil water for 15 minutes and pour it into the basin. The amount of water should be enough to submerge the ankle bones. Use this medicine to soak your feet and replace the rhubarb every two days.

No. 4. Safflower, Chinese clematis, papaya, radix polygoni avicularis, herba spatholobi, herba spatholobi, dried ginger, Sichuan pepper, yanhusuo, asarum, fructus aurantii, mulberry branch, cassia twig, and millettia reticulata. This recipe is used for foot soaking. To be exact, it's leg soaking. You should use a bucket (preferably a wooden barrel). If you don't have a wooden barrel, a plastic bucket will also work. Soak the medicine for half an hour in advance each time, then boil it on the fire (the same way you boil Chinese medicine). Then pour the boiled medicine into the bucket, wait until it cools down to a temperature suitable for soaking your legs, and then put your feet in. It is best to soak it up to the knees. One dose of medicine can be used to soak your feet for three consecutive days. Heat it up each time you soak it.

No. 5. Take cinnamon twig and papaya. The decoction can be used for foot soaking once before going to bed every night for 30 minutes. After the medicine liquid cools down, it can be heated again for soaking. One dose can be used continuously for 2 to 3 days. 7 days is a course of treatment. It is best to start after the beginning of winter.

1. Obese people should lose weight. Although obesity is not the direct cause, excessive force on the legs may cause poor venous return in the legs and aggravate venous dilation.

2. For people who engage in heavy physical labor or stand for a long time, it is best to wear elastic stockings to keep the superficial veins in a compressed state.

3. Women should pay special attention to their legs during special periods such as menstruation and pregnancy. They should get more rest and massage their legs frequently to help blood circulation and avoid varicose veins.
