Varicose Veins – Prevention with Compression Stockings

Transcript

Once again, the importance on compression stockings for these problems is underappreciated. I believe that more people should be informed of other benefits of compression stockings, whether a patient has had therapy for the varicose veins, with foam, laser, you name it, even though some studies are aware of the contradiction in the need for those stockings in the future. I believe that there’s nothing but benefits when you can properly apply them. And when they are actually affordable to patients to use the stockings in at least delaying the progression of vein disease. So before and after I believe that compression stockings are fairly important in the therapy of these patients. Other than that, once again, general lifestyle rules such as controlling your weight and your activity will actually help these problems in the long run.
