Phleb (Greek) means vein, and phlebitis is an acute inflammatory process in the inner wall of the vein, which can be complicated by the formation of a blood clot (thrombus) in the blood vessel. This phenomenon is called thrombophlebitis. The inflammatory process can take place without the formation of a clot, but in that other case varicosity (bloating) is observed. Expanded veins protrude in the form of convoluted cords, or knots, appear through the skin. More often it is observed on the legs or on one leg below the knees, and sometimes on the hips. Because of the development of thrombosis, the speed of the current in the veins slows down; contribute to this sedentary lifestyle, sedentary and standing professions, wearing rubber garters, flat feet, etc. Varicose veins are often accompanied by swelling and pain when walking. The launched form of this disease in official medicine is treated with synthetic drugs and injections and, as a rule, ends with surgical removal of the thrombus or the site of the vein and leads to further complication of the disease. This disease is more common in women.
Treatment by means of phytogenic origin (mainly plants) is quite long, and, of course, the task is not simple: dispense with a scalpel. Therefore, without persistence and patience in this matter can not do. The difficulty of treatment lies in the fact that heredity and congenital predisposition come to the fore. That is, with what, the constitution of a person was born, what kind of blood, what tissues of organs and their nutrition (trophic), what predisposition to diseases, etc. An important role is played by the way of life: food, profession, habits, etc. And if the acquired vital factors can be changed (change the profession, move to a healthy lifestyle, get rid of bad habits, take up prevention, etc.), then turn the heredity in the right direction - the task is not easy.
