Have you carefully observed your parents' bodies? I believe that as long as the symptoms are not particularly obvious, many people will not be able to discover them if their parents do not shout or cry! Especially varicose veins, which are not painful or itchy in the early stages! It's even harder to find out!
However, there are many parents who say
again and again in order not to worry about their children outside, "I'm fine, don't worry"
"I don't matter, don't spend money randomly"
"Just take some medicine, it's good"
... These kind-hearted "lies" are hidden from their children!
There are many family members who took their parents to see the clinic and said they had never noticed it, but only discovered it when they shouted in pain.
According to medical data, it is obvious that the incidence of varicose veins in the elderly is relatively high. According to statistics, the incidence of middle-aged and elderly varicose veins aged 50 to 60 in my country is 60% to 70%, the incidence of varicose veins aged 60 to 80 is nearly 80%, while the incidence of varicose veins in the elderly over 90 is as high as more than 90%. There are currently about 2.5 million patients with varicose veins in our country. This ordinary leg disease has caused countless elderly people to live in a world of mobility difficulties.
Varicocele seems to be painless, but if you leave it alone and don’t treat it, it will still be very harmful to people:
Varicocele not only affects the beauty, but also causes edema , bleeding, and even ulcers, venous thrombosis , etc.
In addition, there will be many complications for varicose veins, such as: varicose phlebitis, stagnant subcutaneous sclerosis , varicose eczema , pulmonary embolism , etc.
If varicose veins and vasculitis are severe in the later stage, they will become edema, itchy, ulcerated, and even have the consequences of amputation.
Therefore, it is recommended that when you find that the blood vessels of both lower limbs are roundabout and significantly thickened, in layman's terms, they should go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner.
Please slow down appropriately and go home to see your parents who are getting older. Don’t let your parents suffer the pain of illness alone. If you have questions about varicose veins, ask the cause, ask the symptoms, ask the nursing questions left by you, and I will help you answer them one by one later.
