The first rule that everyone who suffers from varicose veins should remember is to wear comfortable shoes.

Legs should always be comfortable, especially in the case of varicose veins.

This means that anyone suffering from this disease is not recommended to wear high-heeled shoes, since they are one of the most common causes that provoke the occurrence of varicose veins.

High heels lead to the disruption of blood circulation in the vessels.

In addition, you should also avoid pointed-toe shoes, even if they are at the peak of popularity.

Your choice should be comfortable shoes with a small instep (from 3 to 5 cm), made using soft natural materials.

In addition, do not forget about compression underwear - especially if the work takes place in a long sitting or standing position, as well as in case of pregnancy.

Such stockings and knee-highs help support veins and normalize blood circulation. A phlebologist will select the option that is right for you.
