Many of us tend to ignore those spider veins on our legs and the varicose veins that start bulging out, especially when we’ve been standing a long time. We expect our legs to be tired if we have to walk a good distance, and we constantly have to “put our legs up” at the end of the day.
If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms – especially if the symptoms worsen as the day goes on – there is a good chance you are experiencing problems due to venous insufficiency.
Symptoms include:
Swelling of the legs or ankles (edema).
Leg cramps, especially at night.
