Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Let your doctor know if you are planning to get pregnant or are breastfeeding.
  • Weight is a major factor in the causes of varicose veins. Maintain a healthy weight and exercise regularly. 
  • Wearing compression garments around the area of the varicose veins can also be very effective in treating the condition.
  • Surgical shoes/sandals can also ease walking with varicose vein-ridden legs. 
  • Elevating the legs while sitting can increase the blood flow and encourage drainage. 
  • Limit your intake of salt, as it can cause water retention and lead to edema.
  • Avoid wearing high heels as this can put a lot of pressure on the already constricted veins.
