Know the Signs
Vein Disease Symptoms
Venous disease can present in many ways. Recognizing the symptoms early is the first step toward effective treatment.
Varicose Veins
Large, twisted, rope-like veins visible just under the skin surface. Most commonly found on the legs, they can cause aching, heaviness, and discomfort.
Spider Veins
Small, thin veins close to the skin surface that look like a spider's web or tree branches. Usually red, purple, or blue in color.
Leg Swelling (Edema)
Swelling in the legs and ankles caused by fluid buildup, often a sign of venous insufficiency where veins are not properly returning blood to the heart.
Leg Pain & Heaviness
Aching, throbbing, or a feeling of heaviness in the legs, especially after prolonged standing or sitting — a common symptom of venous disease.
Skin Discoloration
Brownish or reddish discoloration around the ankles and lower legs, often caused by chronic venous insufficiency and blood leaking into surrounding tissue.
Leg Ulcers
Open sores on the legs that are slow to heal, typically near the ankles. Venous leg ulcers are the most common type of leg ulcer.
Restless Legs
An uncomfortable urge to move the legs, especially at night. This can be associated with venous insufficiency and poor circulation.
Itching & Burning
Itching, burning, or tingling sensations around varicose or spider veins, which can indicate inflammation or skin changes due to venous disease.
