Varicose veins affect up to 30% of adults. The condition is caused by faulty venous valves that allow blood to pool in the legs — leading to heaviness, swelling, cramps and visible twisted veins. Up to 70% of cases are hereditary.
This category contains evidence-based articles on symptoms, causes and modern treatment options. The current standard of care is endovenous laser ablation (EVLT/EVLA) — a minimally invasive procedure with short recovery and >95% success at 5 years.
