“Do I have varicose veins?”
I'm 45 years old and have noticed that some of the veins on my legs have become darker than they used to be. Do I have varicose veins?
1 Answer
It is quite possible that you have varicose vein, based both upon your description, and the fact that they are quite common. Unless you are having significant symptoms, varicose veins usually don’t require medical care; however, I would show them to your primary care physician at your next checkup. If they are more of a cosmetic issue, then there are plenty of clinics specializing in eliminating them.
