Diagnosing Leg Veins
Varicose veins are dilated, stretched leg veins that are visible just under the surface of the skin. In the legs, varicose veins are associated with the following symptoms:
- Ankle swelling
- Discomfort
- Night cramps
- Restless legs
- Cometic Deficiency
What are Varicose Veins?Varicose veins are the blood vessels that carry blood from the peripheries back towards the heart. While arteries carry blood from the heart out to the peripheries, varicose veins carry blood from the peripheries back to the heart.
Veins have one-way valves that keep the blood flowing towards the heart. If valves become weak or damaged, then pressure is transmitted back towards the peripheries and the varicose veins then can stretch both in diameter and in length. |
Varicose Vein RisksThere are many factors that can raise the risk of developing varicose veins and some of these include family history, advancing age, female gender, pregnancy and obesity.
Problems with varicose veins can occur in up to 50% of men and 60% of women. Varicose veins can be associated with superficial thrombophlebitis and this itself may lead to deep venous thrombosis. |
