Vein Treatment
If you suffer from varicose veins and spider veins, you are not alone. It is estimated that nearly one in four people in this country experience some form of leg vein disorder during their lifetime. While vein problems such as varicose veins and spider veins are not related to artery problems such as those that cause heart disease, abnormal leg veins can affect your health and self-image.
For many people, varicose veins and spider veins are simply a cosmetic concern. For others, varicose veins can cause aching pain and discomfort. Sometimes the condition leads to more serious problems, such as skin ulcers and blood clots. Varicose veins may also signal a higher risk of other disorders of the circulatory system.
Anyone, male or female, can develop spider veins or varicose veins. There are however certain risk factors that can make varicose and spider veins more likely to form.
- The tendency toward vein problems can run in families.
- Women often develop varicose and spider veins during pregnancy.
- Those with jobs that keep one on your feet or sitting at a desk all day can contribute as well.
- Other factors include lack of exercise, injury, and hormonal changes.
Understanding the roles of exercise, diet, and hormones can minimize your risk and control progression; but if varicose and spider veins are already a problem, modern techniques have made treatment of this common condition more effective and safer than ever before.
