What are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are twisted and purple or blue, and they're raised, which means they look like they're sitting on top of the skin. They are swollen & twisted veins that are filled with an abnormal collection of blood. They can be tender and painful, especially after sitting or standing still for a long time. People who have varicose veins might also have achy legs that feel heavy.
