Varicose veins are usually caused by weakened or damaged valves in the veins, which prevent blood from flowing properly and cause it to pool in the veins.

Varicose veins can affect anyone, but they are more common in women, people over 50 years of age, and those who are overweight or have a family history of the condition.

Symptoms of varicose veins can include pain, swelling, cramping, and a feeling of heaviness in the legs. The affected veins may also be visible under the skin.

If well done and if proper follow up is done, then they usually don’t recur.

Varicose veins are usually not dangerous, but they can cause discomfort and may lead to more serious conditions such as ulcers or blood clots in some cases.

Preventing varicose veins may be possible by maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, avoiding prolonged periods of standing or sitting, and wearing compression stockings.

Patient can join work immediately after surgery.
