Support for Veins
Support Stockings can easily be found at a medical supply store or neighborhood pharmacy. The support stockings work by helping the leg muscles push the blood along the varicose veins. The pressure in the stocking is stronger at the ankle and lessens as it goes up the leg. This variance in pressure encourages the blood flow back to the heart.
Exercise helps to improve muscle tone in the legs which helps the muscles support the veins and reduce the bulging. Another simply remedy for varicose veins is to elevate the legs.
