VARICOSE VEIN SYMPTOMS

Symptoms include leg aches, fatigue, discomfort, swelling, itching, burning and cramps. You may see small spider veins and/or the more dramatically enlarged and bulging varicose veins. Many people have symptoms without anything visible, but no matter what your symptoms are, your quality of life is probably affected.

You don’t participate in the activities you love; you don’t wear the clothes you like; you may have two sets of shoes so that you have one pair for morning and another pair for the afternoon when your feet are swollen. You probably can’t stand on your feet all day like you used to. Aching in your legs may interrupt your sleep, making you feel tired and sluggish throughout the day.
