Varicose Veins Treatment

What Are Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are twisted, enlarged veins that bulge just beneath the skin's surface. They can appear on any part of the body and they are most frequently found in the legs. Varicose veins develop when weakened valves within the veins malfunction, allowing blood to pool instead of flowing efficiently back towards the heart. This pooling causes the veins to stretch and bulge.

Risk Factors Varicose Veins

Anyone can develop varicose veins, but certain factors increase the risk:

• Family history: If a close family member has varicose veins, you're more likely to develop them.
• Age: Varicose veins become more common with age as vein walls weaken.
• Gender: Women have a higher risk of developing varicose veins especially while pregnant and on menopause because of hormones changing
• Pregnancy: Pregnancy puts extra pressure on the veins in the legs.
• Obesity: Excess weight strains the veins.
• Prolonged sitting or standing: Occupations that require prolonged standing or sitting can increase the risk.

Signs and Symptoms of Varicose Veins

The following are some symptoms of varicose veins:

• Visible, bulging veins on the legs (purple, blue, or red)
• Aching or heavy feeling in the legs
