Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that commonly
occur in the legs. They happen when the valves in the veins become weak or
damaged, leading to the pooling of blood and the development of swollen,
twisted veins.
Risk factors for varicose veins include genetics, age,
gender (women are more prone), pregnancy, obesity, and prolonged periods of
standing or sitting. Symptoms may include pain, aching, heaviness, or swelling
in the legs, and sometimes visible, bulging veins.
Treatment options for varicose veins range from lifestyle
changes and the use of compression stockings to medical procedures such as
sclerotherapy, laser treatments, or surgery in more severe cases. If you
suspect you have varicose veins or are experiencing symptoms, it's recommended
to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and
appropriate management.
