What is Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are swollen and enlarged veins that usually occur on the legs and feet. They may be blue or dark purple, and are often lumpy, bulging or twisted in appearance.

Any vein that is close to the skin’s surface (superficial) can become varicose veins. Varicose veins most commonly affect the veins in the legs. That’s because standing and walking increase the pressure in the veins of the lower body.

Symptoms of Varicose Veins?

stages of varicose veins

Stages of Varicose Veins

Varicose veins develop progressively, starting from mild venous issues and potentially leading to more severe complications. Here’s a breakdown of the stages:

Normal

1. Normal Veins

Healthy veins have properly functioning valves that ensure blood flows toward the heart. The vein walls are strong, and there is no abnormal pooling of blood. The veins are typically not visible on the skin’s surface and do not cause discomfort.

Stage 1

2. Spider Veins (Telangiectasias)

Spider veins, or telangiectasias, are small, thin veins that appear near the surface of the skin. They are usually red, blue, or purple and resemble a spider web or tree branches. Spider veins are often a cosmetic concern and may cause mild discomfort, but they generally do not lead to significant health issues.

3. Reticular Veins

Reticular veins are slightly larger than spider veins and are usually blue or green. They are located deeper under the skin than spider veins but are still visible. Reticular veins can be more uncomfortable and may be associated with a dull aching or burning sensation, especially after standing for long periods.

Stage 2

4. Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are larger, swollen veins that have lost their valve function, causing blood to pool and veins to become enlarged and twisted. They often appear as bulging, blue or purple veins on the legs. Symptoms include aching pain, heaviness, throbbing, and itching. The discomfort is usually worse after prolonged standing or sitting. Varicose veins are a more serious stage of venous insufficiency and can lead to complications if untreated.

Stage 3

5. Edema of the Lower Leg

As varicose veins worsen, they can cause edema, or swelling, of the lower leg. The ineffective blood flow leads to fluid leaking into the surrounding tissues, causing the legs to swell, especially around the ankles. Edema may be more pronounced at the end of the day or after long periods of standing. This stage indicates more advanced venous insufficiency.

Stage 4

6. Varicose Eczema (Venous Eczema)

Varicose eczema, also known as venous eczema or stasis dermatitis, is a skin condition that arises due to chronic venous insufficiency. The skin around the varicose veins becomes red, itchy, and inflamed. The skin may also become scaly, dry, and prone to cracking. Over time, the skin may darken due to hemosiderin deposits (iron from blood cells) and become more susceptible to infections.

7. Venous Ulcer

Venous ulcers are the most severe stage of chronic venous insufficiency. They are open sores that usually develop around the ankle, where the skin has become thinnest due to prolonged venous insufficiency. Venous ulcers are often painful and can be slow to heal due to poor blood circulation. They pose a significant risk of infection and require medical attention to prevent further complications.
