Abstract
Blood arteries called veins transport blood with little oxygen to the heart. In the veins of the lower limbs, the average blood pressure is determined to be between 60 and 70 mmHg. However, leg veins struggle against gravity to force blood up towards the heart. Usually present in the damaged blood arteries of the lower extremities, varicose veins are convoluted, swollen veins that cause swelling. Due to the weakening of the valves, varicosities generally develop in the larger and lesser saphenous veins of the leg. Obesity and prolonged standing are the main causes of varicose vein disease. About 30% of adults in the nation have this issue, which can be problematic for both health and appearance. A person's productivity and quality of life are impacted by this, which affects people with a prevalence that rises with age. The traditional method compression stocking usage may not, however, always be able to shield patients from developing post-thrombotic syndrome. There are many surgical, endovascular and chemical treatments that enhance quality of life, but we propose a novel method for the detection and corrective action that completely eradicates the secondary complications of varicose veins, considering some limitations of conventional surgical intervention and the gradually rising potential in non-invasive alternative treatments. This study increased the likelihood of discovering varicose veins in the leg earlier and offers a solution. When a person has varicose veins, his or her leg experiences more pressure. Using this as the key component, a pressure sensor is consequently attached to the leg. It continuously checks the leg's pressure; if there is any variation in that pressure, the suggested model takes over. With the aid of a motor air pump, the cuff that is attached to the leg begins to pump. As a result, it restores normal blood pressure and provides relief. When compared to the earlier approaches on the market, the suggested solution has a larger chance of being adopted.
