When we heard the diagnosis of "varicose veins of the lower extremities", we usually imagine the legs that are distorted by blue veins that can be found under the skin.However, these signs are characteristic of advanced varicose veins of surface veins.With the defeat of deep vessels, the seizure of seizures runs in a hidden form for a long time.In the first stages of the disease, internal varicose veins on the legs are not visually manifested, although according to statistics, every third person who lives in the world's industrialized countries suffers 40 years and older.
Causes and symptoms

The main cause of varicose veins on the legs is the load on the internal vessels caused by directness.Therefore, only one person of internal varicose veins suffers from all highest mammals.The attempt to adapt the "Homo sapiens" to the vertical pose and the increased effects of earthly appeals provided the development of its veins with special flaps that regulate the process of the river and the blood drainage in the lower extremities.Under the influence of overload, however, the valves of the inner veins fail and lose the ability to regulate blood flow, which leads to stagnation of intravascular liquid, the deformation of blood vessels and the stretching of their walls under the pressure of thickening blood - varicos veins of the inner ven of the legs that develop.
The varicose of the inner veins of the lower extremities has the same causes as the superficial:
- In the long term on the legs or on weight varicose veins, a professional illness of employees, hairdressers, sellers, surgeons, teachers and dentists as well as athletes and makers is.
- Obesity - it can be caused by obesity and pregnancy.
- Hormonal malfunctions - the cause of this are the jumps in the hormonal background under the influence of "critical days", pregnancy and menopause - therefore in women more often through varicose veins of the inner veins of the lower extremities than in men.
- Hereditary disposition due to the inherent weakness of the inner veins.
Sometimes the internal varicose veins of the legs of diseases such as diabetes and thyroid pathology are accompanied.In this case, hormonal malfunctions are inevitable.A comprehensive examination is required for the diagnosis to identify it.Treatment of the main disease helps to adapt the situation with varicose veins.
Attention!
Despite the initially hidden form of internal varicose veins, the body sends signals about problems in the venous system of legs as soon as the dysfunction process begins.If a person does not pay attention to the characteristic signs of the disease for a long time and do not take any measures for their timely treatment, varicose veins can lead to disabilities and even death.
The symptoms of internal varicose veins on the legs include:

Diagnostics and treatment
Modern examination methods help a special diagnosis with hidden varicose veins of internal veins:
- Angiography- X beam of blood vessels with the introduction of a contrast to the bloodstream, which enables blood flow to pursue through the veins.
- Lymphography- helps to recognize a violation of the lymph drainage, which leads to swelling of the legs.
- Computer tomography,Give a two -dimensional image of blood vessels and enables your defects to be observed visually.
- Ultrasonic examination (ultrasound)- defines the condition of the walls of the veins and the degree of valve power in the vessels.
It is also necessary to carry out blood tests.A general analysis (UAC) shows the degree of hemoglobin, platelets and red blood cells so that you can define the presence of an inflammatory process.Hemostasis will help to determine the risk of blood clots.
According to diagnostic procedures, the doctor develops a therapeutic strategy that decides how and how to treat internal varicose veins.This includes a complex of therapeutic measures, including:

- Wear of compression lines- It is bought in pharmacy facilities based on the recommendations of a phlebologist.It can be golf, stockings or tights - everything depends on the localization of the damage zone.The doctor determines the required degree of compression effects on the veins that vary between 20 and 100% (the indicator is specified during the sale);
- Sclerotherapy- A minimally invasive procedure that includes the introduction of a special substance (sclerosantin) that clogs painful internal vessels.As a result, they are excluded from the blood flow, and their function is transferred to the so -called collateral -in nearby small blood vessels, which then increase to the required size and become full in full veins.
- Drug treatmentVacation of internal venous vessels using anticoagulation medication that reduces the degree of blood density, as well as the venotonics that strengthen the walls of the inner vessels.
Important!
With timely measures, these procedures enable the development of internal veins and relieve negative symptoms.In order to maintain a stable therapeutic effect, you should be systematic and systematic from a phlebologist, regardless of the patient's subjective sensations.
