I thought the saying goes APRIL showers bring May flowers.. I didn't know it rained in May ð©ð© I keep seeing heavy T-storms in the area this evening, and if you were around over the weekend then you saw and heard about the massive tree damage down near Smyrna, so this line of storms is no joke.
Study says crossing legs can increase health risks. Alix Redmonde. SARASOTA, Fla. - According to a study published in the journal Blood Pressure Monitoring, sitting with your legs crossed at the knee can raise your blood pressure. The study finds leg crossing increased systolic blood pressure nearly 7% and diastolic by 2%.
In brief: Unlikely. I doubt that crossing of the legs will lead to either neuropathy or varicose veins. For neuropathy to occur, it would mean that there was pressure on a nerve to cause the problem. This would be quite difficult to happen with simple leg crossing. Varicose veins are due to malfunctioning valves and crossing of the legs will not damage the valves although it could decrease the venous return. In brief: Unlikely. I doubt that crossing of the legs will lead to either neuropathy or varicose veins.
