Do not ignore ! Bluish Veins on legs…could be Varicose or Spider Veins.

Varicose veins with pain, swelling, heaviness, and aches in the legs have become a more common incidence in the last couple of decades due to changing lifestyle, sedentary jobs or continued standing or even restrictive clothing. The varicose veins results from failure of the valves present in the superficial veins and their subsequent failure to push the blood up towards the heart. The result – pooling of blood in the legs, swollen disfigured legs, and not to forget- reduced blood to the heart. In severe cases it can be a potentially life threatening disease as it can bring the heart to a standstill. Hormonal changes make women more vulnerable to the condition, but men in professions that involve prolong standing (traffic policeman, army men) or sedentary desk jobs are not spared either.

Constant vigilance is the key to early diagnosis. You will know you are developing varicose veins if you have the following.

• Bulging or stretching superficial leg veins
• Aching, throbbing or Night cramps in legs
• Heavy, tired, itchy or restless legs
• Skin changes such as blackening of skin in legs
• For some people there is swelling of the ankles and feet
• Family history of Varicose veins

These won’t go away unless appropriate steps are taken because if left untreated, varicose veins result in chronic venous insufficiency, venous ulcers, eczema, cosmetic disfigurement and systemic hypertension. Untreated and undiagnosed varicose veins also result in pooling of the blood in the lower limbs, causing severe itching and burning sensation in the feet, sometimes-severe tiredness and psychological disturbances.
