Almost 25% of adults deal with vein discomfort in their legs. The veins can be an eyesore, but their symptoms are even worse – aching, burning, throbbing, muscle cramping, swelling, and itching.
You know those feelings?
Here are my go-to solutions to relieve vein discomfort. You can use them for yourself or share them with a family member or friend in need: |
|
● |
Wear compression socks – Propel blood housed in veins towards heart. |
|
|
● |
Maintain a healthy weight – Keep your body active by exercising every day |
|
|
● |
Wear flat footwear – Get blood pumping through extremities with well-fitted shoes. |
|
|
● |
Elevate legs – Elevate legs if you’re sitting too long to improve circulation. |
|
|
● |
Massage effective areas – Massage affected areas to get things moving through the veins. Try using essential oils while you massage. |
