Can standing for a long time lead to varicose veins?
Standing for a long time can lead to varicose veins.

Varicose veins are the most common diseases of venous system. The main reason is that the congenital vascular wall membrane is weak or rarely changes the same posture for a long time. Blood accumulates in the lower limbs, and the venous valve is damaged over time, which leads to an increase in venous pressure, which is a symptom of blood vessels protruding from the skin surface. Varicose veins mostly occur in lower limbs. The main symptom is that the superficial blood vessels are varicose like earthworms, and the obviously prominent skin is lumpy or nodular.

Workers who carry heavy objects or stand for a long time can tie their legs with elastic bandages. When leggings are bound, the legs and feet should be padded first, and the calves should be bound with elastic bandages to prevent venous congestion and lower limb dilatation. When you tie it, you should start from the ankle and try to tie it as tightly as possible. Conditional can wear special health care elastic socks for varicose veins. When standing for a long time, don't always support your whole body weight with your legs together, but concentrate, let your legs take turns to rest, often stand on tiptoe, let your heels move together, or often do squats. All the above actions can cause strong contraction of calf muscles and reduce venous hematocele.
