Male small pelvic varicose veins

Under the influence of various factors, the venous blood vessels in the pelvic area will be deformed, which will lead to impaired blood flow and corresponding consequences. With age, the risk of pathological changes increases. Varicose veins in the male pelvis can be masked by certain diseases, such as varicocele or hemorrhoids. In the case of minimal symptoms, conservative treatment can be performed; advanced cases require surgical intervention.

Disease characteristics

When it comes to varicose veins of the small pelvis (VVVMT), it implies structural changes in blood vessels and the presence of venous congestion. Pathology is also called chronic pelvic pain syndrome and venous congestion syndrome in medicine.

Causes of pelvic varicose veins in menThe special feature of BPHMT is that it is difficult to diagnose in the early stages. The development of venous valve insufficiency and the occurrence of congestion form varicose veins, which are caused by blockage (partial or complete) of the venous bed, pressure on the blood vessels and decreased pitch.

According to statistics, in women, venous malformations of the male reproductive organs are less common than those of the small pelvis.

Violations can be manifested as:

  • Chronic prostatitis;
  • Varicocele (repetitive, bilateral);
  • Venous occlusive erectile dysfunction;
  • Hemorrhoids (internal/external);
  • Varicose veins of the lower extremities;
  • The combination of listed pathologies.

Incorrect diagnosis of the patient's condition may lead to treatment difficulties, and the risk of recurrence is greatly increased.

Factors that cause disease

Many patients have inherited vascular problems. Weak blood vessels need to pay more attention to their own health. Otherwise, varicose veins of the pelvic vessels are not excluded. Likewise, pathology can be acquired naturally.

Usually, the disease is caused by the following reasons:

  1. Vascular diseases (portal hypertension, May-Turner syndrome, arteriovenous conflict).
  2. Dysplasia of connective tissue.
  3. The formation of tumors.
  4. Behavioral habits (low exercise, abuse of junk food, lack of regular intercourse, excessive physical exertion).

The genetic susceptibility of varicose veins does not mean its development. If men prefer a healthy lifestyle, the possibility of vein damage will be greatly reduced.

Classification

There are 3 degree varicose veins in the small pelvis, mostly in men.

The determination of the stage depends on the index of the diameter of the affected blood vessel:

  • For level 1 BPHMT, the maximum value is 0. 5 cm;
  • When the degree of pathology is 2, the diameter of the vein increases to 1 cm.
  • When transitioning to stage 3, the indicator exceeds 1 cm.

According to the origin, the disease is divided into primary (congenital) and secondary.

Symptoms

The initial clinical manifestations of VVMT in men were not detected.

If no treatment is given for a long time, symptoms will appear in the following form:

  • Pain in the lower abdomen and perineum;
  • After exercise, pain increases during sex and defecation (if the patient suffers from constipation);
  • Swelling of the scrotum and perineum;
  • Urination disorders (dysuria).

When a person changes position, the discomfort usually increases. With VVMT, the pain will radiate to the lower back or thighs. The more veins that are affected, the higher the likelihood of urinating difficulties.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis of small pelvic varicose veins

Several diagnostic methods are provided:

  • TRUSI;
  • Ultrasound examination of pelvic veins;
  • Doppler imaging;
  • Pharmaceutical cavity angiography (PCG).

In addition, patients need to undergo coagulation test and sperm test. If you suspect a sexually transmitted disease, perform PCR diagnosis.

In order to accurately determine the disease, the patient must be examined by the andrologist and phlebologist.

Treatment of male ERCT

If the affected vein has no obvious symptoms, the doctor can prescribe a preventive course of treatment and mandatory monitoring of the patient's condition.

Prescribed use:

  • phlebotonics (synthetic, plant-based);
  • Anticoagulant;
  • Vitamins;
  • Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (for pain and discomfort).

For elderly patients, especially in the absence of severe symptoms, conservative methods are also recommended.

The medicine chosen by the doctor helps strengthen the blood vessel wall and improve hemodynamic parameters.

Surgical treatment methods

When the disease develops for a long time and is accompanied by various uncomfortable symptoms, it is decided to undergo surgery. When selecting surgical intervention methods, experts will consider the patient's age category, health status, and accompanying pathological conditions.

Suitable for surgery for patients with the following diseases, especially endovascular surgery:

  • Strong clinical manifestations;
  • Bilateral varicocele (recurrent);
  • Prostate varicose veins;
  • compression The vein is compressed.

In addition, this kind of invasion can be eliminated by angioplasty, stent placement, and vascular embolization.

Folk remedies

Traditional medicine can be used to relieve symptoms and speed up the recovery of affected veins. However, you should not use natural medicines without first consulting a doctor.

List of potential recipes:

Traditional medical recipes for treating pelvic varicose veins
  1. Pour chopped ginger (4 tablespoons) and lemon zest into boiling water (1 liter). After cooling, add honey to the infusion (2-3 tablespoons L. ). Use this drink instead of tea.

When using folk remedies, it is important to understand that they are only a supplement to the main treatment, so you don’t want to refuse the medicine prescribed by your doctor.

Prognosis and possible complications

The most favorable prognosis will be in the initial stage of VVMT. If the disease develops for a long time and is accompanied by characteristic symptoms, it is usually only solved with surgery.

Thanks to medication, you can relieve the discomfort caused by vein deformation and reduce the risk of unnecessary consequences.

Patients should note that there is no guarantee that there will be no recurrence even after surgery. If the man continues to lead the old lifestyle, it is likely that the disease will recur.

In other words, a good treatment effect can be obtained by the following methods:

  • Complete treatment in time;
  • Strictly follow medical advice;
  • Behavior correction.

If the veins of the small pelvis are affected by varicose veins, the patient has the following risks:

  • Infertility;
  • The spermatogenesis index drops;
  • Diffuse changes in prostate parenchyma;
  • Erectile dysfunction.

Due to the deformation of blood vessels, thrombosis and migration, the possibility of thromboembolism until the vein rupture of massive bleeding increases. Such complications are fatal to patients (occurs in 5% of cases).

Preventive measures

In order to improve sexual performance and avoid vein damage and the above-mentioned consequences, you should regularly prevent it.

Please follow these simple rules to protect yourself from harmful diseases:

  1. Nicotine can severely damage blood vessels and the entire body, so you should always quit smoking. Should reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption.
  2. A sedentary lifestyle is one of the most common causes of VVMT. It is necessary to avoid staying in a static position for a long time and go out for a walk more often. Office workers who are forced to sit next to their computers are useful for regular warm-ups.
  3. An important item on the suggestion list is nutrition correction. Doctors always recommend excluding harmful products from the menu to avoid overeating. The food you eat should be rich in vitamins, minerals and many other valuable substances, so that the blood vessels remain strong and elastic.
  4. It is worth avoiding excessive physical exertion.
  5. Regular intercourse without interruption has a positive effect on blood vessels.
  6. If a person has undergone surgery, they must wear compression stockings. Certain parameters should be considered when choosing medical underwear. In addition, you need to follow the doctor's instructions for vekononics. If necessary, the expert will adjust the dose or prescribe a more appropriate treatment.
  7. In order to keep the veins healthy, it is recommended to set aside time every day for therapeutic exercise.

Regular physical examinations are not important, this will allow you to detect any deviations in time and start treatment. The earlier the disease is detected, the easier it is to deal with it. Severe cases require long-term treatment.

Conservative methods can be used to eliminate small pelvic varices without serious symptoms. Neglected diseases are resisted through surgery, and even after surgery, the pathology may still reappear.

Through prevention, it is possible to minimize the risk of ERCT, which means maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
