Vein obstructions can result in decreased blood flow to critical areas of the body, or where flow is less critical the individual can still experience swelling, redness, pain, itching, and discomfort or even a burning sensation. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), varicose veins, and peripheral artery disease (PAD) are all related conditions.

Vein obstructions and other restrictions in blood flow can be or indicate very serious medical conditions. Be certain to consult a doctor for an initial evaluation.

Natural Cures: Improved hydration, blood thinning remedies such as cayenne pepper, moderate exercise, reduced salt intake, weight loss, and any steps to get control of cardiovascular or diabetic conditions will help to reduce the symptoms of vein obstructions.
