Estas son las causas y las opciones de tratamiento
Para millones de estadounidenses, s&iacute;ntomas como dolor en las piernas, hinchaz&oacute;n, sensaci&oacute;n de pesadez, s&iacute;ndrome de piernas inquietas o v&aacute;rices visibles suelen atribuirse al envejecimiento o a permanecer de pie durante demasiado tiempo.
<a href="https://empirevein.com/es/nuestro-equipo-2/dr-foghi/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">El Dr. Armin Foghi, de Empire Vein &amp; Vascular Specialists</a> en Victorville, explica que estos s&iacute;ntomas podr&iacute;an ser se&ntilde;ales de Insuficiencia Venosa Cr&oacute;nica (IVC), un trastorno circulatorio progresivo que puede empeorar con el tiempo si no se trata.
La Insuficiencia Venosa Cr&oacute;nica (IVC) afecta a un estimado de 25 a 50 millones de estadounidenses. Las estimaciones indican que entre el 10% y el 35% de la poblaci&oacute;n adulta de Estados Unidos presenta alg&uacute;n tipo de enfermedad venosa, y casi 6 millones de personas padecen etapas m&aacute;s avanzadas y severas de la enfermedad.

La Insuficiencia Venosa Cr&oacute;nica ocurre cuando las v&aacute;lvulas dentro de las venas de las piernas se da&ntilde;an o debilitan, impidiendo que la sangre regrese eficientemente al coraz&oacute;n. Como resultado, la sangre se acumula en la parte inferior de las piernas, aumentando la presi&oacute;n dentro de las venas.
Con el tiempo, esto puede provocar v&aacute;rices, hinchaz&oacute;n, da&ntilde;o en la piel, dolor e incluso &uacute;lceras dif&iacute;ciles de cicatrizar.
Causas de la Insuficiencia Venosa Cr&oacute;nica
Las venas saludables contienen v&aacute;lvulas unidireccionales que ayudan a que la sangre fluya hacia arriba, en contra de la gravedad. Cuando estas v&aacute;lvulas se debilitan o dejan de funcionar correctamente, la sangre puede comenzar a fluir hacia atr&aacute;s y acumularse dentro de las venas, una condici&oacute;n conocida como reflujo venoso.
&ldquo;Cuando las v&aacute;lvulas dejan de funcionar adecuadamente, la sangre se acumula en las venas, provocando que se estiren y agranden con el tiempo&rdquo;, explica el Dr. Foghi.
Factores de Riesgo Comunes
<ul>
<li>Antecedentes familiares de enfermedad venosa</li>
<li>Envejecimiento</li>
<li>Obesidad</li>
<li>Embarazo</li>
<li>Tabaquismo</li>
<li>Estilo de vida sedentario</li>
<li>Antecedentes de co&aacute;gulos sangu&iacute;neos (TVP o trombosis venosa profunda)</li>
<li>Permanecer sentado o de pie durante per&iacute;odos prolongados</li>
<li>Ocupaciones que requieren estar de pie por mucho tiempo, incluyendo enfermeros, maestros, trabajadores de tiendas, estilistas, trabajadores de f&aacute;bricas y profesionales de la salud</li>
<li>Falta de ejercicio regular</li>
</ul>
Las investigaciones han identificado la obesidad y el comportamiento sedentario prolongado como factores importantes que contribuyen al empeoramiento de la enfermedad venosa y a una menor calidad de vida.
S&iacute;ntomas Comunes de la IVC
<ul>
<li>Dolor o pulsaciones en las piernas</li>
<li>Sensaci&oacute;n de pesadez o fatiga en las piernas</li>
<li>Hinchaz&oacute;n de tobillos o pantorrillas</li>
<li>V&aacute;rices</li>
<li>Sensaci&oacute;n de ardor o picaz&oacute;n</li>
<li>S&iacute;ndrome de piernas inquietas</li>
<li>Calambres nocturnos en las piernas</li>
<li>Cambios de coloraci&oacute;n en la piel alrededor de los tobillos</li>
<li>Sensaci&oacute;n de presi&oacute;n o tensi&oacute;n en las piernas</li>
<li>Irritaci&oacute;n o erupciones en la piel</li>
<li>Llagas o &uacute;lceras abiertas en etapas avanzadas</li>
</ul>
Los s&iacute;ntomas suelen comenzar gradualmente y empeorar con el tiempo. En algunos casos, pueden llegar a afectar significativamente la movilidad y las actividades diarias.
Opciones de Tratamiento
El tratamiento depende de la gravedad de la enfermedad y de la causa subyacente del reflujo venoso. En los casos leves, las terapias conservadoras pueden ayudar a aliviar los s&iacute;ntomas. Los casos m&aacute;s avanzados pueden requerir procedimientos venosos m&iacute;nimamente invasivos.
Los tratamientos modernos para las venas son mucho menos invasivos que las cirug&iacute;as tradicionales del pasado.
Uno de los tratamientos m&aacute;s efectivos es el sistema de cierre <a href="https://empirevein.com/es/servicios-de-vena/venasal/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">VenaSeal&trade;</a>, que utiliza un adhesivo m&eacute;dico especializado para cerrar las venas enfermas.
Seg&uacute;n el Dr. Foghi, el procedimiento VenaSeal&trade;:
<ul>
<li>Generalmente se completa en aproximadamente 20 minutos</li>
<li>Es m&iacute;nimamente invasivo</li>
<li>Requiere solo una inyecci&oacute;n de anestesia local</li>
<li>Permite que la mayor&iacute;a de los pacientes retomen sus actividades normales inmediatamente despu&eacute;s</li>
<li>Ha demostrado una tasa de cierre del 95% a los cinco a&ntilde;os</li>
</ul>
&ldquo;VenaSeal&trade; es seguro y est&aacute; dise&ntilde;ado para cerrar permanentemente las venas enfermas&rdquo;, afirma el Dr. Foghi.


Cu&aacute;ndo Consultar a un Especialista en Venas
Cualquier persona que experimente dolor persistente en las piernas, sensaci&oacute;n de pesadez, hinchaz&oacute;n, v&aacute;rices visibles, cambios en la coloraci&oacute;n de la piel o heridas que no cicatrizan debe considerar una evaluaci&oacute;n con un especialista vascular o venoso.

The Worlds 1st Accessibility App For the Undeserved Communities 

These are the causes and latest treatment options.
For millions of Americans, symptoms such as aching legs, swelling, heaviness, restless legs, or visible varicose veins are often dismissed as part of aging or standing too long.
<a href="https://empirevein.com/en/our-team/dr-foghi/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Dr. Armin Foghi of Empire Vein &amp; Vascular Specialists</a> in Victorville says these symptoms may actually be signs of Chronic Venous Insu&#64259;ciency (CVI), a progressive circulatory disorder that can worsen over time if left untreated.
Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) affects an estimated 25 to 50 million Americans. Estimates indicate that up to 10% to 35% of the adult U.S. population experiences some form of venous disease, with nearly 6 million suffering from more advanced, severe stages of the condition. SOURCE: <a href="https://www.yalemedicine.org/conditions/chronic-venous-insufficiency" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">yalemedicine.org/conditions/chronic-venous-insufficiency</a>
Chronic Venous Insu&#64259;ciency occurs when the valves inside the leg veins become damaged or weakened, preventing blood from flowing e&#64259;ciently back to the heart. Instead, blood pools in the lower legs, creating increased pressure inside the veins. Over time, this can lead to varicose veins, swelling, skin damage, pain, and even di&#64259;cult-to-heal ulcers.
Causes Of CVI
Healthy veins contain one-way valves that help move blood upward against gravity. When those valves weaken or fail, blood can begin flowing backward and pooling inside the veins &mdash; a condition known as venous reflux. &ldquo;When valves break down, blood becomes &ldquo;backed up&rdquo; in the veins, causing them to stretch and enlarge over time,&rdquo; says Dr. Foghi.

Common Risk Factors
&bull; Family history of vein disease
&bull; Aging
&bull; Obesity
&bull; Pregnancy
&bull; Smoking
&bull; Sedentary lifestyle
&bull; Prior blood clots (DVT)
&bull; Standing or sitting for long periods&bull; Occupations requiring prolonged standing, including nurses, teachers, retail workers, hairstylists, factory workers, and healthcare professionals.
&bull; Lack of regular exercise
&bull; Research has identified obesity and prolonged sedentary behavior as major contributors to worsening vein disease and reduced quality of life.
Common CVI Symptoms
&bull; Aching or throbbing leg pain
&bull; Leg heaviness or fatigue
&bull; Swelling of the ankles or calves
&bull; Varicose veins
&bull; Burning or itching sensations
&bull; Restless legs
&bull; Nighttime leg cramps
&bull; Skin discoloration around the ankles
&bull; Tightness or pressure in the legs
&bull; Skin irritation or rash
&bull; Open sores or ulcers in advanced cases
&bull; Symptoms often begin gradually and worsen over time; they may become severe enough to a&#64256;ect a person&rsquo;s mobility throughout the day.
CVI Is More Than Just a Cosmetic Issue
Visible varicose veins may be an external sign of underlying vein reflux disease. While many people associate vein disease only with the cosmetic appearance of varicose veins, chronic venous insu&#64259;ciency is a serious medical condition. Visible varicose veins may be an external sign of underlying vein reflux disease.
Treatment Options
Treatment depends on the severity of the disease and the underlying cause of venous reflux. In mild cases, conservative therapies may help relieve symptoms. More advanced cases may require minimally invasive vein procedures.
Modern vein treatments are far less invasive than traditional surgeries of the past. One of the most e&#64256;ective treatments is the <a href="https://empirevein.com/en/vein-services/venaseal/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">VenaSeal&trade; Closure System</a>, which uses a specialized medical adhesive to close diseased veins.
Dr. Foghi says that the VenaSeal&trade; procedure is:
&bull; Usually completed in about 20 minutes
&bull; Minimally invasive
&bull; Requires only one local anesthetic injection
&bull; Most patients can resume normal activities immediately afterward
&bull; Associated with a reported 95% closure rate at five years
&ldquo;<a href="https://youtu.be/MJcFl7jLyeg?si=y12Vd8vZFLHQRyR9" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">VenaSeal</a>&trade; is safe and designed to permanently seal diseased veins,&rdquo; says Dr. Foghi
Reducing the Risk of CVI
Dr. Foghi says lifestyle changes can help reduce risk and slow disease progression:
&bull; Walk regularly
&bull; Maintain a healthy weight
&bull; Elevate legs several times daily
&bull; Avoid sitting or standing too long
&bull; Stretch frequently during work
&bull; Wear compression stockings if recommended
&bull; Avoid smoking
&bull; Stay active during long travel
&bull; Follow a heart-healthy diet
Seek a medical evaluation early if symptoms persist or worsen.
When to See a Vein Specialist
Anyone experiencing ongoing leg pain, heaviness, swelling, visible varicose veins, skin discoloration, or non-healing sores should consider evaluation by a vascular or vein specialist.
Dr. Armin Foghi is a board-trained invasive cardiologist with leadership experience as chief of cardiology, who promoted and helped establish vein clinics in multiple states. He has served as an educator and clinical trainer for all vein-treatment modalities across multiple vein-disease centers of excellence.
