VARICOSE VEINS---
Derived from a Latin word 'varix', which means twisted, varicose is a situation that arises as a result of weak veins. Veins are the carriers of impure blood, from the
different parts of the body, back to the heart. When these veins become weak, instead of carrying the blood to the heart, they flow it back, thus resulting in
congestion. Though the problem of varicose veins may occur in any part of the body, legs are the most susceptible region. The causes of varicose veins include
pregnancy, obesity, long-standing periods and lack of exercise. Varicose veins can, however, be treated using home remedies. In the following lines, we have provided
some of the ways to cure the problem at home.
HOME REMEDIES---
:One of the most effective ways of treating varicose veins would be to have a combination of CARROT AND SPINACH JUICE. For this, combine 300 ml of carrot juice and 200 ml of spinach juice.
:VITAMIN E and C are essential for the treatment of varicose vein. For this, take 3,000 mg of vitamin C and 600 to 1,200 mg of vitamin E daily.
:Staying on an FRUIT DIET, for two to three days, is an easy solution for varicose veins. Thereafter, have a balanced diet that includes grains, seeds, nuts, raw
vegetables and fresh fruits.
:Warm water ENEMA is a good home remedy to cure varicose veins, as it helps cleanse the bowels.
:Applying APPLE CIDER VINEGAR to the varicose veins two times a day i.e. in the morning and evening would prove helpful in treating the problem. This would make the vein shrink back to their original size.
:Taking HOT EPSOM SALT BATH, two times in a week, will prove effective in treating varicose veins.
:Another useful home remedy would be to MASSAGE the affected area with ROSEMARY OIL.
:In 4 ounces of carrier oil (ALMOND OIL), add 12 drops each of cypress and rosemary essential oils. Apply this mixture on the legs, by gently stroking them in an upward motion. This is an effective way to treat varicose veins.
:Applying VITAMIN E OIL or witch hazel tea to the affected area serves as a good home remedy for varicose veins.
:Take HOT and COLD HIP BATH, alternately. This would prove to be beneficial in curing varicose veins. .
:Avoid having potatoes, starchy foods, condiments, alcohol, coffee, strong tea, white flour products and white sugar, when suffering from varicose veins
HOMEOPATHIC CURE---
ARNICA: When this remedy is indicated, the legs look bruised, or black and blue, and the swollen veins are very sore to touch. The legs feel deeply sore all over and are also worse from motion. Lying down may bring relief.
CALCAREA CARB: Varicose veins that hurt while the person is standing or walking may respond to this remedy. People who need this remedy often have poor circulation, with clammy hands and feet, and a general feeling of chilliness. They may have weak or flabby muscles, and be easily tired by exertion. Weight problems, cravings for sweets and eggs, and a tendency to feel anxious or overwhelmed when overworked are other indications for this remedy.
CARBO VEG: Poor circulation with icy coldness of the extremities, and mottled skin with distended veins and a bruised or “marbled” look, may indicate a need for this remedy. The person’s legs feel weak and heavy, and often itch and burn. Poor digestion, a feeling of faintness, and a craving for fresh or moving air are strong indications for Carbo vegetabilis. This remedy is often indicated for older people, or those who are slow to recover from an illness.
HAMAMELIS: This remedy can help when varicose veins are large and sore, and very weak and easily damaged, with a tendency to bleed. Pain is sore and bruiselike, and the legs look bruised and purple. A stinging feeling may be felt in the irritated veins. The muscles of the legs feel tired and are often cold. People who need this remedy may also develop varicose veins in the genital area or have a tendency toward bleeding hemorrhoids.
LYCOPODIUM: When this remedy is indicated, drawing or tearing pains are felt in the legs, sometimes with a numb sensation. Symptoms are worse when the person is keeping still, and the legs may cramp at night in bed. People who need this remedy may have a worried facial expression along with digestive problems, sluggish liver function, and poor circulation.
PULSATILLA: Swollen veins in the legs, and sometimes even in the arms and hands, suggest a need for this remedy. Varicose veins in the legs feel hot and painful at night, with heaviness and weariness. Symptoms are worse when the legs are hanging down without support, and worse from warmth. Cold applications, motion, and cool fresh air may help. Pulsatilla is often helpful for varicose veins that develop during pregnancy.
ZINCUM METALLICUM: When this remedy is needed, the legs are fidgety and restless, with weakness in the muscles, crawling sensations, and a tendency to twitch. Large varicose veins may develop, with pain and soreness that are worse from touch. The person may feel worse from alcohol, especially wine.
Homeopathy Dosage Directions---
Select the remedy that most closely matches the symptoms. In conditions where self-treatment is appropriate, unless otherwise directed by a physician, a lower potency
(6X, 6C, 12X, 12C, 30X, or 30C) should be used. In addition, instructions for use are usually printed on the label.
Many homeopathic physicians suggest that remedies be used as follows: Take one dose and wait for a response. If improvement is seen, continue to wait and let the
remedy work. If improvement lags significantly or has clearly stopped, another dose may be taken. The frequency of dosage varies with the condition and the individual.
Sometimes a dose may be required several times an hour; other times a dose may be indicated several times a day; and in some situations, one dose per day (or less) can be sufficient.
If no response is seen within a reasonable amount of time, select a different remedy.
