1. What causes varicose veins?
In fact, many bad habits in daily life can also lead to varicose veins, such as people who are stressed for a long time, stand for too long, etc. These can cause varicose veins, so daily Be sure to pay attention.
Causes1, Congenital causes
Some patients are due to congenital weak vein walls and venous valve insufficiency. Studies have shown that because the walls of the veins are easy to expand, the venous valve will not close completely, and the phenomenon of blood backflow will occur. Over time, it leads to varicose veins.
Causes2. Sedentary
In life, there are many people because of work , sedentary every day, such as white-collar workers, students, drivers, etc. Studies have shown that sitting for a long time can easily lead to the blockage of blood circulation in the body, especially the lower body. Over time, it is easy to cause varicose veins in the lower extremities, or varicose veins in the rectal venous plexus, which can lead to hemorrhoids.
In this regard, it is recommended that people who are often sedentary should get up and move their bodies every hour, go to the toilet, or they can often raise their legs when sitting. relax for a moment.
Causes3. Standing for a long time
In life, there are also some people who need it because of work While standing for a long time, such as hostesses, traffic police, teachers, salespersons and so on. Studies have found that standing for a long time will keep the lower extremity veins in a state of continuous high pressure for a long time, which may easily lead to lower extremity varicose veins.
In this regard, it is recommended that people who often stand for a long time should sit down and rest for 5 minutes every 1 hour.
Causes4, pregnancy
Pregnant women are also more likely to develop varicose veins This is because when a woman becomes pregnant, some hormone changes in the body will cause blood to pool in the lower extremities. As the volume of the fetus in the abdomen increases, the pressure on the abdominal veins will gradually increase, thereby blocking the return of the lower extremities. In addition, the blood flow of pregnant women is also increasing, thus increasing the burden on the blood vessels, causing varicose veins.
Cause 5. Obese people
Because the lower limbs need to support the huge body, the venous pressure increases.
The course of varicose veins is irreversible. Once you know that you have varicose veins, you should go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible, and actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment to avoid missing the best treatment period.
2. How to treat varicose veins
General therapy
Avoid standing for a long time, elevate the limb to rest during sleep and sitting, which can reduce congestion and pain. Patients with ulcers should stay in bed. Applying elastic bandages or wearing elastic stockings can promote venous return. A diet high in protein and rich in vitamin C helps ulcers heal.
Physiotherapy
Ulcer wounds can be irradiated with ultraviolet rays, helium-neon lasers or low-dose X-rays to promote healing.
Surgical operation
Surgical peeling therapy for varicose veins in the lower leg is difficult for patients to accept because of the pain, high cost, scarring and complications.
Minimally Invasive Therapy
One-time treatment, no scars; no surgery, no pain. Pure green, zero damage.
3. How TCM treats varicose veins
1. Materials: linseed oil, pure plant pollen.
Usage: Mix the two materials in a 1:1 ratio. After mixing well, apply to varicose veins. The patient applies this medicine at night before going to bed, and then wraps it with gauze. The next morning, wash off the medicine again. It is used once a day and the varicose veins will recover within a month.
2. Safflower, Angelica, Achyranthes, Chuanxiong, boil for 10 minutes. Then pour the potion into the foot basin (the basin should be small and deep, and the water can pass the ankles) and place the legs on the basin to smoke. When the water is ready for the feet, it will start to scald. There is also acupuncture massage after hot.
3. Simply apply a hot towel to the calf. When the calf is hot, apply safflower oil on the calf. Rub the hot spot with your hands. Clear the meridians and improve blood circulation. Waiting for a little redness, I massaged the acupuncture points I mentioned.

This recipe is used to soak feet. To be exact, it’s the legs. You should use buckets, no wooden buckets, plastic buckets can also be used, each time you need to soak the medicine for half an hour in advance, then boil it on the fire, then pour the boiled medicine into the bucket, and cool it to a temperature that can soak your legs.

5. Choose rhubarb, mash it, wrap it with gauze, put it in the basin, boil the water for 15 minutes and pour it into the basin. Change the rhubarb every two days.
Rhubarb is a traditional Chinese medicine for diarrhea. Rhubarb is widely used in clinic, and its pharmaceutical preparations include raw rhubarb (Shengjun) and wine-made rhubarb (Jiujun).
It is theoretically feasible to use rhubarb externally to clear heat and detoxify varicose veins, but if rhubarb is used for all varicose veins, or only rhubarb is used alone, then this treatment method Certainly not scientific.
The specific principle is that varicose veins can only be treated with rhubarb in the case of superficial phlebitis. However, the effect of rhubarb for complete varicose veins, especially when the symptoms are more severe, is less not good.
6. Take cinnamon sticks and papaya. Decoct in water before going to bed and soak for 30 minutes each time. After the liquid is cool, it can be reheated and soaked. One dose can be used continuously for 2~3 days. 7 days is a course of treatment. It is best to start after the beginning of winter. .

And by stimulating the acupuncture points on the feet, it can increase blood circulation, nourish qi and raise yang, strengthen the limbs, and improve blood circulation.
