Veins

Envy among physicians, especially among surgeons, is particularly common, although it is in itself an emotion that has occurred and continues to occur in all cultures throughout the world and at all times. The negative emotion arises when a person envies another person's possessions or achievements and is characterized by egocentric resentment because of the other person's superior quality or well-being.

The description of blood flow, the diagnosis of the disease and the treatment of venous disease are crucial to the success of varicose vein therapy. Doctors and therapists unfortunately sometimes overlook chronic venous disease because the extent and impact of the problem is not sufficiently appreciated and the different manifestations of venous disease are not fully recognised.

Spider veins are not only a cosmetic problem, they also cause pain and discomfort. At the first visible signs of vein weakness, which usually becomes more pronounced over time, spider veins should therefore definitely be treated medically. Not only to improve the disturbed appearance, but also to alleviate possible pain and increasing discomfort..

The understanding of "varicose veins" has changed drastically in the last 20 years. Previously, it was understood to mean bulging veins on the lower or upper thighs that could be seen when standing. In many cases, there was a misconception that varicose veins were "only cosmetic" and that treatment depended on the patient's wishes.
