VARICOSE VEINS

Varicose veins are gnarled, swollen, and twisted veins under the skin that seems to emerge to some extent. This usually happens when the faulty valves present in the vein allow the flow of blood in the wrong direction.

It is a common condition that is believed to be affecting more than 23 percent of all adults and it typically affects the leg and thigh.

For some people, it is simply a cosmetic concern and makes people feel a bit self-conscious about their unsightly appearance, but they don't pose a major health threat. Some facts concerning the varicose veins are mentioned below -

  • Women are usually more susceptible to this condition than men. It happens more in women because during pregnancy the enlarged uterus exerts pressure on the veins resulting in bulging and swelling.
  • This condition is the outcome of faulty valves which allow the backflow of blood resulting in varicose veins.
  • Varicose veins are common among the people who have to stand or sit for an extended time which allows the pooling of blood.
  • People who are overweight have an increased risk of suffering from varicose veins.
  • Any condition in which proper blood flow is hampered results in some health complications. However, in the majority of cases, varicose veins have no such complications. If a complication occurs, they may include:
  • Thrombophlebitis: Blood clots in the vein of the leg cause inflammation of the vein.
  • Chronic venous insufficiency: The skin does not exchange oxygen, nutrients, and waste products with the blood properly because the blood flow is weak.

People who have this condition will always look for treatment for inflammation or pain and even a way to remove the unsightly appearance. Fortunately, the treatments are available at Jyoti Nursing Home.
