Natural Cures Recommendations
Do exercises that increase the circulation in the legs such as swimming and walking.
Get up and walk around every half an hour when you areon a long plane or train trip.
Avoid massage strongly and directly on the varicoseveins.
Elevate your feet and rest your legs on a chair orstool when you are reading or watching television.
Avoid standing for long periods (or sit too long oftime) because this will reduce pressure on the valves in the veins in yourlegs. However, if you have to stand too long, shift your weight from one leg to
the other, get up on tiptoe or rotate your feet clockwise or/and slide your
heels back and forth. Do these exercises
twenty times, relax for a few minutes and then repeat.
Never cross your legs. This will enhance the problem.
Sleep with feet raised above the level of the heart.
Wear support stockings which compress the veins and keepthem from stretching and limit pain.
Eating a balanced diet (especially rich in vitamin C) andkeeping your weight down
Avoid potatoes, starchy foods, condiments, alcohol,coffee, strong tea, white flour products and white sugar.
Wear tennis shoes. If your feet habitually swell, itmay be worthwhile to wear tennis shoes or other lace-up shoes that can beopened up or loosened to alleviate the pressure and allow for freer
circulation.
Stay away from tight pants or other clothing.
