VARICOSE VEINS
Varicose veins are veins that have become bluish, swollen, enlarged, and twisted. This happens most commonly in the veins in the legs. Varicose veins are the result of malfunctioning valves inside the veins.
Veins are blood vessels that return deoxygenated blood from the outer parts of the body back to the heart and lungs.
Veins in the leg are either superficial (close to the skin) or deep (encased by muscle and connective tissue. In this case you must necessarily consult your doctor).
Varicose veins affect nearly 50% of middle-aged adults, and 60% of them are women.
