What are Varicose Veins?
Varicose Veins are bulging, twisted veins that form when the valves within our blood vessels fail to work. They commonly occur in the legs, but can be found in other parts of the body. 

What are the symptoms of Varicose Veins?
In many cases, varicose veins and spider veins (a less pronounced variation of varicose veins) are strictly a cosmetic issue. They are unsightly and can cause a lot of embarrassment at the beach, the local pool, or at the gym. However, some patients will experience sharp pain, general discomfort, and even tingling sensations. In extreme cases, varicose veins can create ulcers, or blood clots.

How can you help your vein issues at home?
There are a couple of things you can do to treat your varicose veins. Exercising regularly has been helpful for many patients. Others have had good luck with compression stockings and elevation. However, if you find that self-care measures have not been successful, you may need to consult with a laser vein specialist in Anchorage Alaska.
