Varicose veins are a good chronic disease of the peripheral blood vessels. Its emergence and development contribute to many factors: standing work, intense physical activity, smoking, pregnancy, diabetes, liver disease, a genetic predisposition. The pathology is to reduce the tonus of the wall of veins and capillaries, which leads to stagnation of venous blood, local swelling, inflammation, and trophic skin lesions, but, more importantly, the thrombosis – solid education, formation of blood clots. These blood clots can cause obstruction of the blood vessels in the limb with the further necrosis of tissue, and may enter the circulation and infiltrate anywhere – the pulmonary artery, the brain or the heart. In these latter cases, there is a real threat to life.
Varicose disease of men and women
According to the statistics of the varicose veins of the lower limbs is slightly more common among the representatives of the beautiful half of humanity. The fault of this eternal women of the destiny of the pregnancy and the maternity. At the time of taking the child to the agency overloaded, which has implications on the state of the circulatory system. However, women who are extremely sensitive to the state of their feet and at the first appearance of veins, spider veins, and even more pronounced veins, try to take action and run to a doctor-phlebologist. The result of a disease that is impossible to cut in the early stages.
This is another case of men. In most cases, the varicose veins on the legs in men at the time of the consultation with the doctor is very terminally. Yes, the pregnancy up to this that men are not threatened, but they have a list of specific "male" and the factors likely to determine the origin and development of this nasty disease:
- the gilding and the sedentary work, especially during the low mobility of the lower limbs;
- the service in the army and the organs of internal affairs;
- the intense physical activity and the physical activity;
- hunting, fishing, tourism and other leisure activities, accompanied by frequent hypothermia.
Purely male factors of risk – all the strong tobacco and the consumption of beverages with high ethanol content. Nicotine promotes the breakdown of functions of the peripheral vessels. Alcohol damages the liver cells, responsible for the production of enzymes that prevent the formation of blood clots and dissolve already instructed clots. The more a man has of addiction to alcohol and tobacco, the greater the risk of varicose veins, and most dangerous in its complications.
But the main negative factor, which complicates the treatment of varicose veins on the legs in men is immutable and neglect of patients of the need to take care of itself. The men believe firmly that the spider veins – this is one of the many whims of the female that the macho man should not be careful. It ends only when the skin is form non-healing ulcers, and may help at least one operation of resection is affected in vienna. In this case, it is clear that the doctors do will be to saw off the tip of the iceberg and that the pathology has affected a lot more. Surprised to a certain extent, all the vessels of the legs, and after the operation, the man must be long and hard to recover, and treatment, to prevent further manifestations of the disease, often much more formidable, and leading to amputation, disability and death as a result of the obstruction of the large clot vital blood vessels.

Over time phenomena unpleasant are amplified during the palpation, and the examination, become visible subcutaneous venous buttes and hair. If with them not to do anything, the skin is refined and arise ulcers trophic, extremely difficult of treatment, and of heavy the development of serious lesions infectious of the skin (inflammation), soft tissue (phlegmon), and the total of the blood poisoning (sepsis). These risks, of course, it does not remove the danger of thrombosis, as indicated above.

Even the most courageous and confident men are often very afraid to go to the doctor-phlebologist.
