Detailed explanation-1: -Varicose veins are twisted, enlarged veins. Any vein that is close to the skin’s surface (superficial) can become varicosed. Varicose veins most commonly affect the veins in the legs. That’s because standing and walking increase the pressure in the veins of the lower body.
Detailed explanation-2: -Varicose veins are most commonly found on the calves or on the inner leg. They develop when blood builds up in the superficial veins of the legs. These veins then typically become swollen, raised and appear purple or blue through the skin. A milder form of varicose veins is known as spider veins.
Detailed explanation-3: -Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins. Varicose veins can happen anywhere in the body, but are more common in the legs. Varicose veins are not considered a serious medical condition. But, they can be uncomfortable and can lead to more serious problems.
