Varicose veins can be more than just a cosmetic concern; they often cause discomfort and swelling, particularly after long periods of standing or sitting. While no natural remedy can “erase” varicose veins like an eraser, some treatments can help alleviate symptoms and manage their appearance. Here’s a friendly guide to natural approaches that may support the health of your veins.
Understanding Varicose Veins
Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that you can see just under the surface of the skin. These veins usually occur in the legs but can appear elsewhere. They are caused by weakened valves and veins in your legs. Normally, one-way valves in your veins keep blood flowing toward your heart, but when these valves do not work as they should, blood collects in your veins rather than continuing toward your heart.
