Varicose Veins
What are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are enlarged, dilated, twisted and bulging veins in the legs that thrust-pop out on the skin surface. In the initial days, these veins appear like blue or greyish lines on the skin, however as time passes they start bulging, weakening and even getting darker in color. This condition is quite common and can cause complications like vein ruptures-bleeding, night pain, leg cramps, swelling disfiguring and other cosmetic concerns.
How do they develop?
The lower limb veins have one-way valves that keep the blood moving towards the heart while preventing its backflow. Blood can back up and get collected in the veins if these valves are weak or impaired because of prolonged standing, vein-valve injury or familial condition sometimes. Over time this constant pooling of blood builds tension in the veins, which results in swelling. In such veins, increased pressure also results in the creation of spider veins and discoloured areas that look like bruises.
