What is Varicose veins?
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that usually appear in the legs when vein valves become weak or damaged, causing blood to pool instead of flowing properly. This leads to visible bulging veins under the skin and is commonly linked to standing for long hours, aging, obesity, pregnancy, or genetic factors. While often considered a cosmetic concern initially, varicose veins can progress and cause discomfort if ignored.

Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that usually appear in the legs when vein valves become weak or damaged, causing blood to pool instead of flowing properly. This leads to visible bulging veins under the skin and is commonly linked to standing for long hours, aging, obesity, pregnancy, or genetic factors. While often considered a cosmetic concern initially, varicose veins can progress and cause discomfort if ignored.
Common symptoms include visible blue or purple veins, heaviness in the legs, aching pain, swelling around the ankles, burning or throbbing sensation, and cramps especially after long periods of standing or sitting. In advanced cases, skin itching, discoloration, and even ulcers may develop. Early evaluation and treatment can help prevent complications and improve leg health and comfort.
