Patient's question:
Two years ago, during a health check-up at my workplace, they said I had a tendency towards fibrosis. But at the time, I didn't experience any adverse reactions—I just didn't like running and enjoyed drinking beer. In the past two years, I've noticed that my blood vessels become clearer when I move, and sometimes I feel weak all over and have headaches. A thorough examination at the hospital revealed that I have a venous malformation. I'm very worried and want to get it treated quickly. Can venous malformations heal on their own?Doctor's answer:
Pulmonary vascular malformations have a higher probability of recurrent cerebral hemorrhage compared to normal individuals, and recovery is generally difficult. Therefore, you should pay attention to your diet, avoiding greasy foods and not getting angry, while maintaining emotional calmness.Commonly used sclerotherapy agents include absolute ethanol, bleomycin, fibrin glue, sodium squalamine, and mitomycin, among others. The mechanism of action of absolute ethanol in treating venous malformations is through the formation of blood clots, leading to the formation of an inflammatory alliance within the vessel walls.
