Do exercise or valves help keep the walls around veins strong?
Exercise can help strengthen the muscles around veins, promoting better blood circulation and supporting venous health. While exercise itself doesn't directly strengthen the vein walls, it enhances the overall vascular system and can reduce the risk of venous issues, such as varicose veins. Valves in the veins play a crucial role by preventing blood from flowing backward, ensuring efficient blood return to the heart. Together, regular physical activity and healthy venous valves contribute to improved venous function.
