Venous conditions:
a phenomenon that is under-estimated
• 50% of women and 25% of men suffer from poor
venous return.
• In addition to their unsightly effects, these conditions
are genuine health problems.
• It is therefore important to tackle these conditions
before they worsen:
every year there are between 3 and 7 million cases
of deep vein thrombosis leading to around
70,000 deaths as a result of pulmonary embolism.
• Various solutions are available to prevent
and treat these conditions:
compression, the first-line treatment for venous
insufficiency
(ANAES [French Health Authority] recommendation).
A few factors promoting the onset
of varicose veins
• Heredity
• Prolonged standing or sitting, standing about
(sedentary lifestyle, long journeys)
• Exposure to heat
• Pregnancy
• Being overweight
• etc.
