Treatment of atherosclerosis of the vessels of the lower extremities in the sanatorium Krasnaya Pakhr

Treatment of atherosclerosis involves a combination of several methods. Firstly, it is drug therapy: prescribing medications that increase the patency of blood vessels and reduce the frequency of vascular deposits. In addition, it is necessary to pay great attention to lifestyle: eat right, exercise, give up bad habits, regularly monitor blood pressure. In severe cases of the disease, surgical intervention is recommended. Patients with atherosclerosis are also shown to stay in sanatorium-resort institutions.

Treatment in sanatoriums allows you to comply with a set of measures aimed at eliminating symptoms, combating the further development of the disease and improving overall health. First of all, a special diet is prescribed for patients with atherosclerosis, which is aimed at reducing cholesterol in the blood. In addition, special physiotherapy procedures and mandatory sports are prescribed. All this makes it possible to effectively fight the disease.

Treatment results

After completing the course at the Krasnaya Pakhra sanatorium, a decrease in cholesterol levels is observed in the patient's blood. A strict diet will improve the absorption of fats in the body and prevent the development of complications.

Consequences of lack of treatment

The most common complication in atherosclerosis is an aortic aneurysm. Sometimes, the stuck blood stretches the vessel so much that emergency surgery is required. In such cases, only an artificial vessel (prosthesis) can save.

Атеросклероз сосудов нижних конечностей - это закупорка и уменьшение просвета в сосудах ног, вследствие чего нарушается питание тканей, что может повлечь их отмирание. К факторам риска относят сахарный диабет, ожирение, злоупотребление алкоголем и курением, малоподвижный образ жизни, травмы, депрессии, повышенное артериальное давление. Неправильное питание также является одной из причин повышения холестерина в крови и , как следствие, развитие атеросклероза.
