Prevention

Following your treatment at the Reno Vein Clinic you will be encouraged to develop a healthy vein lifestyle.

• Exercise daily.

• Walking, climbing stairs, cycling and swimming keep your calf muscles pumping actively in motion supporting healthy vein performance.

• Avoid prolonged sitting or standing without leg support.

• Long airplane trips are notorious for exacerbating vein problems.

• Wear graduated support compression hose whenever you can and as long as you can. This provides counter pressure to weakened veins, aiding smooth return of blood from the dependent legs.

• Newer fashionable sheer hosiery are available, so that hot and opaque stockings no longer need to be worn. Please call 775-329-3100 for the selection of imported Ibici stockings.
