Surgeon-phlebologist Armen Avakyan said that with varicose veins, it is necessary to monitor nutrition, as well as abandon baths and hot baths. This is reported by the publication "Doctor Peter".

According to him, the abuse of salty foods, heavy meals and fast carbohydrates make the blood more viscous. Due to the bath or too hot bath, the body temperature rises, due to which the venous vessels dilate.

Avakyan added that sunbathing is not recommended for varicose veins. When a person lies in direct sunlight, the venous walls of blood vessels heat up, causing them to become inflamed, he explained.

Also, people with varicose veins are contraindicated in foot massage. Friction of the skin during massage leads to an increase in body temperature, which can lead to the formation of thrombophlebitis - thickening and inflammation of the saphenous veins.

Earlier, doctors from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention spoke about the skin symptoms of the Omicron strain, which should not be ignored. It is reported by The Sun.

Pale, gray, or bluish skin may be a rare complication of COVID-19 that occurs when oxygen levels in the blood are low, they said.
