Effect of Cold Immersion on Patients With Varicose Vein

In the literature, it is stated that cold water immersion to lower extremities is effective on the symptoms of the disease. Studies have shown that cold water immersion, which is one of the cold application methods, has effects on increasing joint mobility, reducing pain, reducing stress, anxiety, depression, and increasing quality of life etc. For this reason, the study is planned as a randomized controlled interventional study to determine the effect of cold water immersion directly to the lower extremity in the preoperative period of patients with varicose veins on quality of life, anxiety and symptoms experienced.
