Clinical information about varicose veins:
Varicose veins are veins that become swollen and twisted. These are often found in the lower extremities. It’s considered a common condition that will likely happen as we age, but it’s not something to be worried about.
At most, varicose veins will cause pain and discomfort. Those who value cosmetics might consider them unsightly, so they will find ways to conceal them.
What causes veins to become varicose veins are weakness and damage. If our veins become weak and damaged, blood will pool in them, which causes them to grow large and twisted.
Besides age, biological sex plays a factor. Women are more likely to develop varicose veins. Obese and sedentary people are also at risk of developing them.
