What Are Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that often appear on the legs or feet. They develop when the valves inside your veins don’t function properly, causing blood to pool instead of flowing smoothly back to the heart. While often considered a cosmetic concern, varicose veins can also signal underlying vein disease and may cause discomfort if left untreated.

Common Symptoms

  • Bulging, rope-like veins visible under the skin
  • Aching, heaviness, or throbbing in the legs
  • Swelling in the ankles or calves
  • Itching or skin changes around the veins
  • Restless or tired legs, especially at night

Risk Factors

  • Family history of varicose veins
  • Prolonged standing or sitting
  • Pregnancy and hormonal changes
  • Age (more common over 40)
  • Obesity or excess weight

Why Treatment Matters

Untreated varicose veins can lead to complications such as skin irritation, ulcers, or blood clots. Early evaluation can help prevent progression and improve both comfort and appearance.
