Varicose Veins
Q: My father is 62 years old. He suffers from coronary heart disease and hypertension, and his varicose veins are quite severe. Can traditional Chinese medicine treat varicose veins?
A: May I ask which part of the body is affected by the varicose veins? Varicose veins on the chest wall may indicate superior vena cava syndrome, while esophageal varices suggest portal hypertension. Varicose veins in the lower limbs usually result from venous valve insufficiency, though compression by tumors can also cause varicose veins. Since you haven’t specified the location, I can only offer a general response.
