Varicose Vein Treatment and CausesIt is estimated that roughly half of all Americans over the age of 50 suffer from some sort of vein issue, such as varicose veins. Treatment of the problem itself is not always necessary, but the condition can signal other health issues. While varicose vein treatment cannot treat underlying issues, it can greatly reduce the appearance of ugly spider veins. In order to better understand what goes into treatment for varicose veins, it helps to know what causes this condition to appear. The ugly bulging and swelling occurs when the one-way valves in a vein gets weak, causing blood to become trapped there. As more blood pools, the area swells, resulting in the signature varicose vein. Treatments target these specific, tiny areas where the blood collects. If you're coping with stubborn or especially pronounced varicose veins, treatment is more accessible and effective than ever.

Conditions such as pregnancy, obesity, sun damage and genetic weakness in the venous tissues can contribute to the problem. Often, the blue or purple veins can fade over a few months after the underlying issue is addressed. Other times, though, there is no relief from the condition outside of active treatment for varicose veins.
