atherosclerosis<\/strong> in your family.\u00a0This is especially true if any close relative has had atherosclerosis before the age of 60.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhen and where should I seek care?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If\u00a0you think you have high levels of blood fats or symptoms of vein obesity<\/strong>,\u00a0contact a\u00a0health care provider.\u00a0You can contact many receptions by\u00a0logging in.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIf it’s in a hurry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf\u00a0you experience severe pain in your legs that does not release even though you are resting,\u00a0contact a health care center or an\u00a0on-call clinic immediately.\u00a0Seek care at an emergency room if it is closed at the health center or on-call reception.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Investigation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You can see a doctor and tell you about your symptoms or why you think you may have atherosclerosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If the doctor deems it necessary, you will be examined for ultrasound or x-ray of blood vessels, also called angiography. In this way, the doctor can examine the blood vessels in which they suspect that there may be atherosclerosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Computed tomography, isotope examination or other examinations are sometimes needed for the doctor to see if anybody part has been damaged.\u00a0\u00a0You may also need to do an\u00a0ECG\u00a0or\u00a0work test\u00a0for the doctor to see if there are any signs that the heart is strained.\u00a0The doctor also measures blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood fats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Treatment for varicose veins<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The most important thing is that you look over your living habits and try to reduce your risk of vein obesity through a healthy lifestyle. You should stop smoking if you do. This is especially important when the injury has become so severe that treatment is necessary. Drugs or surgery can never compensate for an unhealthy lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Treatment with drugs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You can get medicines if you have diabetes, high blood pressure and high levels of blood fats.\u00a0Blood thinners can prevent blood clots.\u00a0The already existing arteriosclerosis is not reversible by drugs, but the treatment can prevent arteriosclerosis from continuing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Operation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
It can sometimes be a better blood flow with surgery. Then the blood vessel in which you have got a vein fat is operated. One of these three methods is usually used:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Balloon dilation, which means that a small balloon is inserted into the constricted blood vessel and then inflated to dilate the vessel. <\/li>
- Bypass surgery \/ coronary artery surgery, which means that other blood vessels pass the blood past the narrowing.<\/li>
- Scrapping of the innermost calcified layer of the blood vessel.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
You have the right to understand<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
In order for you to be able to participate in your care and make decisions, it is important that you understand the information you receive from the healthcare staff.\u00a0Ask questions if you don’t understand.\u00a0You can also ask for information printed so that you can read it peacefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What happens in the body?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
As you get older, the walls of the arteries, the arteries, become thicker and stiffer. Over time, fat, blood cells and connective tissue are stored inside the blood vessels. When it gets too crowded, the blood becomes harder to pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Atherosclerosis<\/em> is also called atherosclerosis or atherosclerosis and can sometimes cause blood clots to form.\u00a0It can cause the following serious illnesses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n- You may have\u00a0angina\u00a0or\u00a0myocardial infarction\u00a0when the vessels that direct the blood to the heart muscle become too narrow.<\/li>
- You may have a\u00a0\u00a0stroke\u00a0or transitory ischemic attack, TIA if the vessels that lead the blood up to the brain become too narrow.<\/li>
- You can get angina in your legs if you have a vein fat in your legs.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Vein fat can also cause problems with potency.\u00a0When atherosclerosis has started to cause discomfort in some parts of the body, you usually have atherosclerosis<\/span> in other blood vessels, even if you have not yet noticed it.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSome living habits increase the risk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
There are several living habits that can put you at risk of obesity. It means a greatly increased risk if several of the following are true for you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- You have a hereditary risk of varicose fat<\/li>
- You have\u00a0diabetes.<\/li>

Atherosclerosis means that fat has accumulated on the inside of the blood vessels. This is because the walls of the blood vessels become stiffer with age.
