Hyperemia Reactive

Reactive hyperemia is a pathological condition in which a sharp expansion of the blood vessels of the skin and mucous membranes occurs. It occurs as a result of various factors, such as stress, physical activity, changes in ambient temperature, etc.

Hyperemia can be acute or chronic. The acute form is a temporary dilation of blood vessels, which can occur due to injuries, burns, insect bites, bites of poisonous animals, etc. The chronic form is observed in various diseases associated with circulatory or metabolic disorders.

Symptoms of reactive hyperemia may include redness of the skin, a feeling of heat, increased sensitivity to touch, and swelling of tissues. In severe cases, blistering of the skin and bleeding from blood vessels may occur.

The causes of hyperemia may be different. For example, the acute form can occur as a result of physical activity, stress, fatigue, overeating or drinking alcohol. Chronic hyperemia can develop with cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, allergies and other pathologies.

Treatment of hyperemia includes reducing the load on blood vessels, reducing alcohol and caffeine consumption, and using ointments and gels with a cooling effect. In severe forms of hyperemia, the use of medications may be required to normalize blood circulation and prevent complications.

Possible complications of hyperemia include trophic ulcers, tissue fibrosis, as well as the development of chronic diseases of the lungs and heart. Therefore, timely seeking medical help allows you to avoid serious consequences and live a full life.
