Thromboembolism - a disorder in which blood clots block blood vessels. Cessation of blood flow to parts of the body can lead to tissue necrosis as a result of lack of oxygen and nutrients.

The most common blood clots occur in the lower extremities, but sometimes thromboembolism affects the lungs, the brain (the result is a stroke) or heart (causing a heart attack). Less blood clots blocking blood vessels that supply blood to the kidneys, intestines, and eyes.

The causes of thromboembolism may be atrial fibrillation, mitral stenosis, atherosclerosis Atherosclerosis - a chronic disease of the arteries And certain other disorders.

Symptoms

The symptoms of thromboembolism may be:

• Cold hands or feet;
• The weakening or absence of a pulse in the arms or legs;
• The deterioration of the mobility of the hands or feet;
• Muscle pain or cramps;
• Numbness and tingling in the hands or feet;
• Pale skin on the hands or feet;
• General weakness;
• Erosion of the skin, sores (in the later stages, if left untreated).

Diagnostics

For the diagnosis of thromboembolic events using the following methods:

• Angiography of the affected limbs and / or bodies;
• Examination of affected limbs with ultrasound;
• An echocardiogram;
• Magnetic resonance imaging;
• Plethysmography;
• Transesophageal echocardiography.

Treatment

For the treatment of thromboembolism can be used the following drugs:

• Anticoagulants (eg, warfarin Warfarin - indirect anticoagulants   or heparin) which prevent the formation of new blood clots.
• Antiplatelet agents (such as aspirin Aspirin - NSAIDs , Ticlopidine and clopidogrel) is also used to prevent blood clots;
• Anesthetics;
• Thrombolytic agents (such as streptokinase), resolve blood clots and restoring blood flow to tissues.

In some cases necessary to remove the thrombus by surgery.

Forecast

How successful is the treatment depends mainly on what part of the body has developed thromboembolism. In some cases, surgery may no permanent tissue damage, sometimes resulting in the need for amputation.

Even after successful treatment there is a significant likelihood of recurrence of thromboembolism.

Possible complications of thromboembolism:

• Myocardial infarction;
• The infection of the affected tissues;
• Septic shock;
• Stroke;
• Temporary or permanent limitation of functions of certain organs; renal failure Kidney failure - when treatment is vital ;
• Tissue necrosis and gangrene;
• Transient ischemic attack.

More or less pronounced signs of rosacea can be seen on the face of many women, especially blondes with thin sensitive skin Sensitive skin: causes and care . This disease requires a comprehensive treatment, as affects the small blood vessels - the capillaries of the body. But these changes occur most often on the face.

Causes and symptoms of rosacea

Rosacea - a thinning and increased fragility of small blood vessels - capillaries. The capillaries are the final branches of the small arteries that go to primary vein branches. The most common changes in the walls of the capillaries have a hereditary basis and is associated with the structure of the skin (primary rosacea). There are often changes in the natural blondes with thin skin.

But kuperozu can cause different diseases (secondary rosacea). For example, a systemic disease such as lupus. Rosacea may also be due to liver diseases, the cardiovascular system and others.

A sign of rosacea is the appearance of spider veins on the skin thin blood vessels red or bluish color, which can significantly disrupt a person's appearance. In most cases such changes occur in the skin of the wings of the nose and cheeks. On the skin, the body may appear telangiectasia - small red, pink or bluish spots on the skin filled with a network of small blood vessels. Often combined with telangiectasia rosacea on the face and are a sign of a disease of the internal organs.

Basic principles of diagnosis and treatment

Before starting the treatment of rosacea, the patient is required to examine carefully, as rosacea is often a sign of internal organs of the disease. If so, then no treatment of the underlying disease restore normal appearance is impossible.

Treatment of rosacea include:

• detection and treatment of the underlying disease;
• the restoration of the normal state of the capillaries.

Restoring the normal state of the capillary consists of a common influence on all the capillaries and local feedback using external drugs and cosmetics. If these measures do not help, the dilated capillaries is removed.

Restoring the normal state of the capillaries using troksevazin

Troxevasin are medicines based on natural substances routine, which belongs to the group of vitamin P. It rutin and ascorbic acid are the primary substances, strengthens the walls of blood vessels, reduces their permeability and fragility, as well as improve blood circulation in the capillaries. Especially effective they act on the capillary walls.

Troxevasin toning smooth muscles of the walls of capillaries, causing capillaries become less noticeable, they are not thrombosing (thrombosis of small blood vessels is one of the causes of spider veins vessels in the skin).

If small areas of the skin affected by rosacea Rosacea - local circulatory problems , Troksevazin used only externally. On the skin where there is the phenomenon of rosacea, is applied twice a day, 2% gel troksevazin and lightly rubbed into the skin. The duration of treatment three to four weeks, sometimes prolong the course of treatment. If necessary, it can be repeated.

If rosacea occupies a large area, together with the external application troksevazin prescribed capsules for oral administration. Begin receiving treatment with one capsule of 300 mg three times a day for two weeks. Two weeks manifest efficacy, after which the doctor or reduce the dose, or remains the same. The treatment is continued for a total of up to a month or more.

Appointment troksevazin when rosacea is almost always combined with the appointment of ascorbic acid, which strengthens capillary walls and makes them less permeable. Especially the combination of these drugs is that troksevazin enhances the action of ascorbic acid, preventing its oxidation (antioxidant action).

Troxevasin when rosacea is not used alone, but as part of comprehensive treatment. Including getting rid of rosacea apply cosmetics.

Side effects

When using the gel troksevazin Troxevasin - will help if there are problems with veins   side effects occur only as allergy (usually various kinds of skin rashes). If ingestion of capsules may arise troksevazin erosion and ulcers in the mucosa of the stomach and intestines.

Contraindications for external use only troksevazin is individual intolerance of components. Admission troksevazin inside is contraindicated in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, acute exacerbations of erosive and ulcerative diseases of the stomach and intestines. With care prescribe capsule troksevazin Troxevasin capsules (pills) - facilitate the state at current varicose bolez   renal impairment.

Troxevasin used in the treatment of rosacea, but in the complex treatment.
