In case of prolonged sitting position (especially long trips):<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Wear light medical stockings.
\n\u2022 Do not cross your legs when you sit, as it reduces the venous return.
\n\u2022 Regulary make circular and flexion-extension movements of the ankles.
\n\u2022 Lay your legs in stretching them to the maximum.
\n\u2022 At regular intervals, get up and walk.<\/p>\n

In case of prolonged standing posture and\/or of trampling, it is regularly necessary in a day:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 To wear light medical stockings.
\n\u2022 To make ten consecutive steps and to do a few push-ups on knees.
\n\u2022 To hop on the spot or move the weight from foot to foot, on toes.
\n\u2022 To contract and relax the muscles of the legs.
\n\u2022 As far as possible, to avoid carrying heavy loads.
\n\u2022 If your occupation forces you to be daily standing, compensate by periods of walk, several times a day.
\nTo improve the comfort of legs:
\n\u2022 Do not wear too tight clothing, underclothing or accessories (belts, socks).
\n\u2022 The shoes must be flexible and comfortable, the ideal height of heel being around 6 cm.
\n\u2022 Avoid the heat sources on the level of the legs (heating, very hot baths).
\n\u2022 On the evening: shower your legs with cold water, mass the lower limbs in a very soft way from the feet to the thighs; rest with your legs elevated from 10 to 15 cm.<\/p>\n

Nutritional advice:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Fight against overweight and balance your food.
\n\u2022 Restrict your consumption of stimulants: coffee, tea, alcohol\u2026 to prevent dilation of the veins.
\n\u2022 Frequently drink water, for a good hydration.
\n\u2022 Fight against constipation (which increases the venous pressure) by consuming foods rich in fibres (fruits, vegetables\u2026).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Practice if possible a physical activity:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 All the sports favoring the venous return are recommended: walk, road bicycle, cross-country skiing, swimming, gymnastics, water activities\u2026
\n\u2022 Are to be practiced with precaution and without excess all the sports which accentuate the phenomenon of gravity or favor trampling and violent contacts: tennis, collective ball sports (football, rugby, volleyball, handball\u2026), windsurfing, Alpine skiing\u2026
\n\u2022 Are to be limited as much as possible all the sports obstructing the venous return: by respiratory blocking or traumatic risk (weightlifting, bodybuilding, judo and sports of combat, aerobics, squash\u2026), by the posture or the tight clothing equipment (archery, canoe-kayak, rowing, horse-riding\u2026).
\n\u2022 Whatever your tastes, remember that the physical activity is always preferable to an excessive settled way of life. No sport is truly prohibited, on condition of being practiced with moderation, and more regularly than intensively. If you practice a sport non favorable for your veins, compensate by a more beneficial activity (walk, bicycle\u2026).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
