Varicose veins are diseases in which the blood vessels become large and dilated and blood is stored in them excessively. Many people suffer from this type of disease after the age of 50. People who work long hours are more likely to have this problem. These varicose veins can develop anywhere on the body but are more common in the lower extremities and thighs. If they occur in large quantities, they appear on the skin and are felt on the hands.
The main causes are pregnancy, regular use of birth control pills, age, obesity, dietary changes, leg pain, or other surgeries.
If symptoms appear in the early stages, it is possible to control them. It involves lifestyle changes, medication use, and some good treatments. But if the disease is getting worse, it is very important to get proper treatment.

Varicose veins are abnormally enlarged & tortuous superficial veins on the legs and feet.
They are caused because of increased blood pressure in veins. Sitting or standing for long periods can cause blood to pool in the leg veins, increasing the pressure within these veins. The increased pressure stretches these veins. This may weaken and damage the walls of the veins. This results in loss of normal unidirectional blood flow towards the heart.
Females have more prevalence than males
Genetic predisposition
