What
are varicose & spider veins ? |
Description:
Varicose veins are veins on the leg which are large, twisted, and
ropelike, and can cause pain, swelling, or itching. They are an
extreme form of telangiectasia, or spider veins. They occur in
25-30% of the western population. Male and females are equally
affected. 1 in 8 teenagers develop early signs of "leaking
valves". Varicose veins result due to insufficiency of the valves
in the communicating veins.
