Varicose Veins Physiotherapy in Indirapuram

Why they develop

Veins in the legs have one-way valves that help blood return to the heart. When valves weaken, blood pools and veins stretch. Standing for long periods, pregnancy, obesity, age and family history increase risk. Teachers, shopkeepers, security staff and others who stand all day are often affected.

Symptoms

Visible bulging veins, aching, heaviness, itching, and swelling around the ankles that's worse at the end of the day. Skin changes, darkening or ulcers near the ankle indicate more advanced venous disease and need medical assessment.

What helps

The calf muscle acts as a pump for leg veins. Walking, ankle pumping and calf raises help push blood upward. Elevating legs when resting reduces swelling. Compression stockings support veins and can ease symptoms.

Breaking up long periods of standing or sitting, managing weight and staying active all help. Medical or surgical treatments are options for troublesome veins.
