Interestingly, varicose veins themselves normally don’t pose much of a risk, but in some cases, they can be symptomatic of more serious underlying health issues. And if we do not treat them, they may lead to more worrying concerns such as blood clots, ulcers and burst veins. While these problems are quite uncommon, if there is any family history of vein diseases then it’s important to be wary.
The physical appearance of varicose veins can also be of concern to the person affected. Twisting and bulging veins that tend to rope across the legs can be quite unsightly and leave people feeling self-conscious and uncomfortable. Furthermore, this often leads to a deteriorative effect on confidence and mental health. When there’s a physical change that you have very little control over, it’s understandable why many people want to remove their veins removed.
