Varicose Vein Treatment Q & A<\/h4>

What are varicose veins?<\/strong><\/h2>

Varicose veins are thick, gnarled veins created by a backup of blood. Your veins are responsible for pushing blood back to your lungs and heart for reoxygenation. They are equipped with valves that help manage the flow, but if they fail to do their job, a backup of blood occurs and creates a blue, gnarled vein.<\/span><\/p>

This can happen to any vein in your body, but they most often occur in your legs due to the extra fight these veins have against gravity. Varicose veins are more common in women than men, and you may be more likely to develop them as you get older or if you\u2019re overweight.<\/span><\/p>
