Varicose veins are swollen, enlarged, or misshapen veins often discolored and visible under the skin. While they typically appear as dark blue or purple veins on the legs and feet, severe cases may cause discomfort, swelling, and even skin ulcers.
Varicose veins develop when the one-way valves in veins stop working properly. These valves are designed to keep blood flowing toward the heart, but when veins become too dilated, blood can flow backward and pool in the lower legs. Over time, this results in the characteristic appearance of varicose veins.

Venous insufficiency is a common condition that occurs when the veins struggle to send blood back to the heart. This can lead to varicose veins, swelling, discomfort, and more serious complications. As primary care providers, your role in early diagnosis and treatment is crucial in managing this condition effectively.
Some reasons you should consider treating venous insufficiency include improved quality of life, to prevent further complications, and for some, it may be medically necessary.
They are caused by weakened or faulty vein valves that let blood flow backward and pool. Risk factors include genetics, aging, obesity, pregnancy, and standing for long periods. Over time, pressure builds up, enlarging and twisting the veins.
Pregnancy increases blood volume and puts more pressure on leg veins, which can cause them to enlarge. Hormones also relax vein walls, making them more likely to stretch. Many varicose veins improve or disappear after childbirth.
In many cases, you can schedule a consultation directly with a vein specialist. However, some insurance companies may require a referral from your primary doctor. It’s best to check your plan before scheduling treatment.
