Caring for Your Circulation
随着心脏的每一次跳动,你的血管系统在全身循环血液。通常,你的静脉会把营养物质送到最需要的地方。如果你有血管疾病,一定有什么东西干扰了这项重要的工作。
Our vascular team provides surgical and non-surgical treatments to keep you healthy. Visit our experts for vascular screenings and treatment options that meet your needs.
When to See a Vascular Specialist
Vascular disease is often called a silent killer and presents few symptoms. It is important to see a vascular doctor to assess your risk.
Common vascular disease risk factors include:
- Diabetes
- High cholesterol
- High blood pressure
- Obesity
- Slow or non-healing sores on feet or legs
- Aching, cramping or pain in your limbs while exercising
- Family history of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)
Get Relief from Varicose Veins
Varicose veins are swollen flawed veins. They are purple or blue veins that look enlarged and warped. Varicose veins are most common in your legs or feet due to increased pressure on these veins while standing and walking.
对大多数病人来说,静脉曲张虽然不美观,但不会造成疼痛。对其他人来说,这些静脉会引起疼痛、酸痛和搏动性疼痛。
If you have varicose veins, try these self-care measures:
- Walk more to encourage blood circulation
- Lose weight to ease pressure on your veins
- Avoid tight clothes and uncomfortable shoes
- Elevate your legs
- Get compression stockings
See a physician if you’re still concerned or if your symptoms worsen after trying these methods. Other treatments for varicose veins include:
- Sclerotherapy:Injecting a chemical to the affected veins to scar them so they can no longer carry blood. The body then absorbs the scarred veins.
- Radiofrequency ablation (RFA):A minimally invasive procedure that uses a tube to put heat directly into varicose veins to close them. This improves blood flow and reduces blood pooling.
- Vein stripping:Making small cuts through which a surgeon ties off and removes veins.
- Microphlebectomy:Inserting special tools through small cuts to remove varicose veins. This procedure can be done alone or with vein stripping.
