Remembering those who offered their lives for our freedom.

We all want to enjoy healthy and active lives but with all the tasks of work and family we may forget about maintaining the health of our legs. Problems with the veins of the leg occur in both men and women of all ages but certain factors increase the risk of venous problems. Health conditions, lifestyle habits, heredity, injury, surgery, age, and pregnancy all play a role. Call for your check up and duplex ultrasound 310-481-3939.

The National Institutes of Health suggests people with venous disease take 4 simple steps: Create compression: Wear compression stockings or socks. Keep moving: Avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time. Increase exercise: Regular exercise can help strengthen leg muscles that aid in the constriction of the veins deep in the legs. Seek care for wounds: Venous insufficiency can cause skin sores that are hard to heal. See your MD! #drrichmantips
