A Vexing Variety of Causes for Varicose Veins
Sure, sky-high heels can lead to foot problems; but, while they may be starting at
the bottom, the damage they cause can easily work its way up. In fact, worn
regularly, those shoes can even trigger varicose veins. That’s because calf
muscles, which normally contract and release during walking, stay contracted
when feet are shoved into stilettos; and the blood needs that contraction to
pump it up and out of the leg. Indeed, without that necessary boost, it can pool
in the veins, and eventually cause them to become varicose.
So, wear lower heels most of the time; and if you have – or are developing –
varicose or spider veins, call us. We have the most advanced, effective treatments
available anywhere.
