Varicose veins are swollen and twisted veins usually found in the legs. They happen when blood flows backward and pools in the veins. This causes veins to stretch and bulge. The varicose vein meaning in Urdu refers to veins that may look blue or dark purple and can cause pain or heaviness in the legs.
Many people notice varicose veins that look twisted or bulging. Symptoms include:
Aching or heavy feeling in the legs
Swelling around the ankles
Itching near the veins
Skin color changes near affected veins
Muscle cramping or throbbing
Veins that are visible and raised
Call your doctor if you notice:
Severe leg pain or swelling
Open sores near the veins
Sudden redness or warmth over the veins
Varicose veins occur when the valves in the veins weaken or get damaged. This causes blood to flow backward. Causes include:
Age-related valve wear
Pregnancy, which increases blood volume
Standing or sitting for long periods
Obesity is putting pressure on the veins
Family history of varicose veins
These raise your chance of getting varicose veins:
Older age
Being female
Pregnancy or hormonal changes
Obesity
Jobs requiring long-standing or sitting
Family history of varicose veins
You can reduce risk by:
Exercising regularly
Maintaining a healthy weight
Avoiding long sitting or standing
Wearing compression stockings if advised
Elevating legs when resting
Varicose Veins include following types:
These are the most common categories. They occur when the valves in your surface veins (near your skin) do not function well. Usually, these valves ensure that the flow of blood goes toward the heart. Weak or broken veins can let blood go back and collect inside, making the vein grow large and distorted. As a result, varicose veins may form, which are often found in the legs. The most common causes are being on your feet for a long time, getting older, or a family history of the condition
Such cases are not that common, and they are often more serious. The condition appears because of issues in the deeper veins found in the leg. It could be because of a clot in the blood, trauma, or some other health problem that stops normal blood flow. If the deep veins are injured, the increased pressure can force blood into the surface veins, which causes them to deform. Treating the secondary varicose veins most often starts with addressing the primary issue.
Doctors diagnose varicose veins through:
Mild cases may need no treatment beyond lifestyle changes. These help reduce symptoms:
Wearing compression stockings
Elevating legs when sitting or lying down
Avoiding long standing or sitting
Exercising regularly
Medical treatments include:
Sclerotherapy (injection to close veins)
Laser therapy to seal veins
Untreated varicose veins may cause:
Pain and swelling
Skin ulcers near ankles
Blood clots in the veins
Bleeding from swollen veins
