People who always need to maintain the same posture are prone to certain occupational diseases. For example, in the crowds who need to stand for a long time, such as teachers and sales clerk, the varicose veins of the lower extremities are more frequent. Zhang Xiujun, director of the Department of Vascular Surgery at Tianjin Hospital, suggested that these people may wish to try medical elastic stockings for prevention and treatment. As for how to choose the right elastic stockings, Director Zhang said that it is mainly considered from three aspects.
Stretch stockings delay the condition
In patients with varicose veins and deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities, due to poor venous return of the lower extremities, the venous pressure of the lower extremities increases. If the condition is not interfered in time, letting it develop arbitrarily, it is easy to cause a series of complications such as itchy skin and boots. Area pigmentation, lower extremity ulcers, etc. As a physical therapy, elastic stockings can effectively relieve venous pressure, promote venous return, and cooperate with effective drug treatment, which can significantly delay the development of the disease.
"People's commonly known elastic stockings or varicose stockings are actually called medical decompression elastic stockings, which are products that promote the function of venous blood return to the heart." Director Zhang Xiujun said that as an effective means of preventing and treating varicose veins, The elastic stockings have been widely accepted and used by vascular surgeons and patients at home and abroad, and after clinical use, the effect is very obvious.
Some patients should not wear
People who stand, sit still, bed in bed and cause blood circulation disorder in lower limbs, heavy soreness in lower limbs, and people with mild varicose veins, chronic varices, venous stasis, phlebitis, varicose veins during pregnancy, swelling of lower limbs, and ulceration of calves, All need to wear elastic stockings. Then the question is coming, how should the elastic stockings be chosen? Zhang Xiujun said that the so-called "suitable" of the elastic stockings should be the greatest pressure on the ankle after wearing, the second in the calf, the smallest above the knee, and does not affect the knee joint activity, comfortable and close. At the same time, the length of the socks should be selected according to the location of the lesion. Of course, the best way is to consult a doctor before purchasing. For elderly patients with heavier lower limbs, it is not appropriate to wear elastic stockings.
Buy socks to pay attention to three aspects
To buy elastic stockings, you should choose from the pressure, size, and socks type according to the location of the varicose veins:
1. Select the appropriate elastic stocking pressure according to the wearer's leg symptoms
