What are the precautions for patients with varicose veins of lower limbs?
Patients with varicose veins of lower limbs should avoid oppressing the affected limbs, try to avoid wearing tight clothes, sitting cross-legged or kneeling cross-legged, and don't put anything under their legs.

. Preventing the long-term increase of intra-abdominal pressure will affect the venous blood return of lower limbs, cause the increase of intra-abdominal pressure of lower limbs, increase the burden of venous valves or destroy venous valves. Therefore, we should actively treat chronic diseases that can lead to increased intra-abdominal pressure, such as chronic cough and constipation.

Wearing elastic socks or binding elastic bandages can play the role of "pump" of calf muscles, promote the blood return of lower limbs, and reduce or eliminate the heavy feeling and fatigue of limbs.

Patients with varicose veins of lower limbs should protect their affected limbs from injury and avoid scratching and scrubbing. Those with blisters, ulcers or gangrene should keep local cleanliness and adopt correct treatment methods for active treatment. Patients with severe blood supply deficiency should avoid taking a bath with hot water, so as not to increase tissue metabolism, aggravate tissue hypoxia, make the disease develop faster and aggravate symptoms.
