OBLITERATING ATHEROSCLEROSIS (ENDARTERITIS)
OF LOWER EXTREMITIES VESSELS
The atherosclerosis
is the wide-spread chronic disease characterized by the
infiltration (hardening) of the arteries walls with fat cells and growth of a connective tissue
with the formation of fibrous plaques, narrowing a lumen and the disturbing (violating)
physiological function of affected arteries that results in disorder of blood circulation.
Many internal and external factors may be the reason for atherosclerosis development.
Smokers, people eating fat food rich with cholesterol make up the risk group. Individual
organism peculiarity, for example, low activity of making out ferments by the liver
destroying cholesterol.
Symptoms:
the appearance of ischemia symptoms (inadequate blood supply to
extremities). At first the disease reveals itself only with big physical activity; causing the
weakness and increased muscles tiredness, the feeling of chill in the extremities, later their
numbness and pain. The affection may be not the same in both extremities.
With obliterating atherosclerosis the pain may arise in all group of muscles: sural,
femoral, buttocks and may be of different intensity even in the rest of state, during the
long-time walking it may be very severe and makes the patient suffers hard.
Curative effect:
ALMAG device is recommended to be applied for prophylaxis of an
atherosclerosis, an obliterating endarteritis, as well at initial stages of disease under doctor
advice and control. Magnetic field generating by ALMAG device has anesthetizing, anti-
inflammatory effect, improves blood flow due to the dilatation of vessels lumen, reduces
parietal thrombogenesis. Magnetotherapy plays an important part in normalization of
blood circulation at a level of microcirculatory channels of the smallest arteries, capillaries
and veins systems, providing a metabolism in organ tissues, including vessels wall.
The devices with a purpose of prophylaxis can be recommended to the patients
suffering from diabetes, a gout, a psoriasis, an idiopathic hypertensia, an obesity, and also
to the people who lead not active way of life, smokers.
А
LMAG is applied as an
obligatory element of the complex therapy for obliterating endarteritis including the taking
of medicines, a diet, physical exercises, etc.
Procedure:
Coils-inductors are placed along vessels and nerves direction of the affected extremity:
the first coil is usually put on area a little lower than patella, last coil - on the back side of
the foot (see fig. 23).
