Varicose veins are a common problem that affects many people. Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that can be seen just below the skin’s surface. They often look like cords and can be blue, purple, or red in color. They are caused by a weakening of the vein walls, which can lead to blood pooling and inflammation.
Varicose veins can cause pain and discomfort, and can also lead to other health problems if left untreated. Symptomatic varicose veins in your legs could present as burning, throbbing, swelling, muscle cramps, itching, skin discoloration, aching, heavy sensation, and worsening pain down your legs from prolonged standing or sitting.
The symptoms of varicose veins can vary depending on the individual. Some people may experience pain, swelling, or cramping in the legs. Others may notice a brownish discoloration in the skin, or that their veins are bulging or twisted. Varicose veins may also cause skin ulcers or sores. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to see a doctor or medical professional for an evaluation.
There are many different treatment options available for varicose veins. Treatment options vary depending on the individual’s symptoms and the severity of the veins. Some treatment options include:
