Vascular disease is a fairly common phenomenon that can occur with people. Like many other diseases, varicose veins have their own stages and if the initial manifestations of the disease are often accompanied by discomfort, the final stage is not only dangerous to health but also for human life. To avoid the beginning of such serious consequences, for example, disabilities and others, it is necessary to know the main characteristics of varicose veins, its development and how to prevent its complications.
The concept of varicose veinsVaricose veins are a disease that affects the muscle layer and connective tissue of the vascular wall, as well as their valve equipment. Therefore, the veins are expanded, blood circulation in this place, the bloodstream of the blood through the vessels.
Most people know about varicose veins on their feet. But there are other localities of the disease, as ships can be affected in any part of the body.
Typically, in medical practice, varicose veins of pelvic organs (bladder, uterus), Perineum (scrotum, rectum, vagina) are diagnosed. However, in all cases, the clinical picture of the disease depends on the location of the damage and the pathological stage.
Intravenous veins in men and its featuresAt young age (average, from 10-12 years), a young man may experience a disease like varicose veins of the scrotum. In science, this state is called "varicocele".It can be found during the simple and touching test of the scrotum. Clinical varicocele is manifested by a number of symptoms, including:
Pain on the side or half of the scrotum is affected, strengthening after physical activity;
The level of testicular severity;
Infertility.
However, usually Varicocele may not express themselves and are determined by accident during the plan as planned.
This disease distinguishes three stages:
Expanding light veins, it can be seen when the patient performs Valsalva (stress);
Venous veins can be visible and touched in the patient's calm state;
The ships are drastically changed, convincing, full of blood. The testes in the area are affected by the disease reduced in size, consistent with testing.
In adult patients, varicose veins are often diagnosed with treatment for a doctor with complaints about having no children. There is a theory that Varicocele affects fertility (fertility of children) by increasing the temperature inside the scrotum, adversely affecting the testes and sperm. Moreover, varicose veins in men are often combined with damage to ships on the legs.
Diagnosis is very simple.As mentioned earlier, you may suspect the scrotum varicose veins when checking normally, and then an ultrasound study of blood vessel beams should be done to confirm. As a treatment, using surgical intervention only: The doctor simply tapes varicose veins, blood circulation is performed according to Anastomoses. However, it should be noted that with varicose veins, operating is not fully healing. Moreover, the disease in many cases is recurrence.
The features of varicose veins in womenVariasia.For women, this disease is a risk of fetal influence. As mentioned above, varicose veins can occur on any part of the body, including in the pelvic area. During pregnancy, the situation becomes worse, because first, the circuits of the abdominal cavity are prolonged when the fetus develops, and second, the uterus increases the size of pressure on them. Due to these processes, the blood circulation of the placenta is disturbed, which can lead to its rejection. In this case, of course, the probability of losing a child increased significantly.
Sometimes varicose veins during pregnancy.Before conceiving, a woman absolutely could not doubt that she tended to get sick. However, during pregnancy, the female body subject to certain changes in the body can cause a number of diseases, including varicose veins. Such changes include:
Changing hormones;
Increase body weight;
Anatomy change.
Moreover, the number of births is proportional to the risk of a subsequent pathology. In addition to pelvic veins, during pregnancy, other complications may occur:
Broken uterine veins during childbirth;
thrombosis;
Dermatitis, Trophic ulcer;
Lack of veins.
Therefore, pregnancy is a factor, unfortunately, can cause varicose veins, because it contributes to faster pathological development and requires preventive measures with a certain diagnosis.
Other consequences of varicose veinsThrombophlebitis.Usually varicose veins and veins lead to inflammation of blood vessels - hemolysis, can be combined with the formation of blood clots - thrombosis. Basically, this disease affects the circuits of the lower limbs, so the patient complains of intense pain in the affected areas of the leg. Symptoms of an inflammatory reaction are generally noted: high temperatures and weaknesses. If the treatment is not started on time, the process is applied to other veins, the patient's condition worsens.
Thrombosis.With the presence of thrombosis and varicose veins, there is a risk of serious complications - thrombosis. It occurs due to the separation of blood clots from the walls of the ship, then the congestion of the trunks most important to nourish the heart, light and brain.
Initially, a blood clot may, for example, on the foot (this is the most common). However, from the lower limb, it is forced to move through the blood flow to the different parts of the body. As a result, falling into smaller branches of the blood vessel system, blood clots that cause the collapse, due to the blood circulation of the position disturbed with the appearance of ischemic, and then necrosis. Clinically, this is manifested by a heart attack, stroke or lung and fat (pulmonary thrombosis), often ending death.
Treatment for such diagnostic patients should only be performed in special care units and special care. Measures to provide support to patients in this case should be done immediately - in this case, the patient has the opportunity to salvage.
Dermatitis.Usually, this unpleasant complexity occurs on the inner surface of the lower leg, manifested as a number of symptoms, including:
thin skin;
epidermal pigment;
The itching of the area is affected;
The appearance of bubbles tends to open, leading to skin stratification;
Violating the sensitivity of the area affected.
Dermatitis is not good, hard to treat. The presence of a thrombosis requires the appearance of trophic ulcers - parts of skin deaths. In the future, an infection can participate in ulcers from which the wounds may appear.
Telengioectasia.This cosmetic defect, looks like "stars" of blood vessels, is the result of the broken surface capillaries and is a sign of the initial stage of diverse veins.
Bleeding.This is a very common disease - nothing more than the varicose veins of the rectum. It is manifested by the appearance of tied lymph nodes, usually going out, breaking and inflammation. This causes significant concern for the patient.
Diagnostic methodThe easiest and most affordable way to detect varicose veins and its complications are the ultrasonic doppler veins of the lower limbs. During this research, blood flow, blood vessels and the condition of their walls are generally evaluated. Therefore, the diagnosis helps detect blood clots. Moreover, all patients with venous veins are required to overcome the Doppler before any surgical intervention to eliminate the presence of blood clots to avoid complications.
In the case of a patient suspected of a vein or thrombosis, the doctors recommend that Phlebography contrast X -ray contrast (the method of evaluating the work of the veins).
To do this, a special serum - Albumin is put into the train, then takes X -Ray to be done, on which the pulses from the veins will be registered. The result is then evaluated.
You can complete the test with a calculation layer cut with the contrast of the military body. This method is the most accurate, but more expensive. However, this diagnostic method not only allows the identification of vascular diseases, but also to assess the status of other systems and body tissues.
Treatment of complicationsTreatment of the consequences of varicose veins depends on the current condition of the patient and, directly, the type of complication. Therefore, thrombosis requires prescriptions, anti -inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, painkillers. When the process of causing inflammation gradually, physical therapy, hirudoma therapy (leech treatment) is recommended. An activity can be proposed as a raw - tie and elimination of veins.
Spain ulcers are treated poorly.The surgeon removes necrotic areas, prescribing ice with disinfectants and ointments. Along with these operations, antibacterial therapy and blood flow in Vienna are performed.
Blood vessels are removed by hardening therapy, meaning "paste" of veins. After doing the procedure, wearing compressed linen to prevent recurrence is prescribed.
Other complications, such as hemorrhoids, varicocele and pelvic veins, can only be cured after surgery after thoroughly checked and determined the affected veins.
ForecastAn unfavorable prognosis is observed in the case of thrombosis of the pulmonary artery, the number of deaths in which 75%. In addition, the thrombosis with the trophic lesions of the skin is not caused by the disease, because with a persistent change in blood vessels, and the risk of infection also increases, leading to some complications. The consequences of the disease can often cause patients with disabilities.
The indication of the provision of patients with disabilities is:
The presence of thrombosis and thrombosis is transferred;
Erysipelas relapses;
Posttrombephitic syndrome;
Surgical treatment is not effective.
Typically, defects are given to patients with the end stage of varicose veins with continuous weakening performance.
