What Causes Varicose Veins?
Poor Blood Circulation
Anything that contributes to improper blood flow or clotting can eventually cause varicose veins.
Weakened Vein Valves
Valves inside the veins control the flow of your blood, and prevent blood from flowing backwards. Due to a variety of factors, whether it be damage due to surgery, inflammation, or infection, those valves can become weakened. This allows blood to flow backwards and pool in the lower extremities.
Additional Risk Factors
Certain factors can increase your likelihood of developing varicose veins. These include:
- Aging
- Pregnancy
- Being Overweight
- Orthopedic Surgery
- Genetics / Family History
- Sedentary Lifestyle
- Hormonal Medications
- Smoking
- General Surgery
- Long Periods of Standing
