Varicose veins are more than just a cosmetic concern.
They may be associated with leg pain, heaviness, swelling, skin changes, itching, cramps, and—in advanced cases—even venous ulcers or bleeding.
Early evaluation can help identify the underlying vein problem and guide the right treatment.
If you notice persistent leg symptoms or visible varicose veins, consider consulting a vascular specialist.
