  • Title: Looking after your health. 3. Avoiding varicose veins.
    Author: Randall S.
    Journal: Pract Midwife; 2015 Feb; 18(2):32-4. PubMed ID: 26333251.
    Abstract:
    This article is to summarise key concepts for the health of the midwife with particular focus on standing for prolonged periods. One of the resultant factors relating to standing postures is the slow but avoidable progression of varicose veins. There is a strong genetic bias to these veins, which can be distressing, but here we will highlight awareness and current research.
