What Are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that usually appear on the legs. They’re caused by weakened or faulty valves, allowing blood to pool in the veins. Over time, this leads to visible swelling, discomfort, and sometimes skin changes or ulceration.
Why Do They Occur?
- Genetics and family history
- Age-related valve weakening
- Hormonal changes, pregnancy
- Prolonged standing or inactivity
- Obesity and lifestyle factors
If you’ve noticed aching, swelling, or discolouration in your legs, it could be more than cosmetic. Book a consultation at HHC Vein Clinics with one of our Consultant Endogenous Specialists to get assessed.
