Al-Marsad newspaper: Canadian orthopedic expert Brendon Talbot warned, through his account on “Tik Tok”, that you should avoid putting one leg on the other while sitting because it can put pressure on a major drainage area in the lower extremities.
Unnecessary pressure can lead to circulation problems and eventually contribute to varicose veins, including varicose veins.
Previous studies suggested that placing one leg on the other raises blood pressure slightly, because this position makes it difficult to pump blood towards the heart and increases resistance in the opposite direction, according to “The Sun”.
After Brendon warned that one leg should not be crossed, he recommended regular exercise to maintain healthy veins such as walking for only 30 minutes each day in addition to maintaining a healthy weight.
