What are leg varicose veins?
Varicose veins are a sign that your veins are struggling to carry blood back to your heart efficiently. This can happen when the tiny valves inside your veins weaken, causing blood to pool and the veins to swell. For many, varicose veins bring not only cosmetic concerns but also physical discomfort, like aching, heaviness, and swelling in the legs. They can even make everyday activities, like standing or walking, feel challenging.
Causes & symptoms
- Genetics play a significant role, so if your parents or grandparents had varicose veins, you may be more likely to develop them too.
- Lifestyle factors, like standing or sitting for long periods,
- pregnancy
- aging
- carrying extra weight
You might feel aching, heaviness, or tiredness in your legs, especially after standing or being on your feet all day.
Some people experience swelling, itchy or irritated skin near the veins, or even cramps, especially at night.
Over time, these symptoms can make everyday activities feel harder or less enjoyable.
