Visible veins aren’t always a sign of unhealthy veins, but they certainly can be. Here are some symptoms to keep an eye out for if you’re concerned!
🎨 Discoloration: New darker red or purple patches on your skin could be a sign of DVT, or Deep Vein Thrombosis
🦵 Leg swelling: This could indicate poor circulation or weakened veins.
🤕 Pain/Discomfort: Itching, burning, cramping, restless legs, and tingling can indicate vein disease.
🔀 Bulging/twisting veins: Visible veins like this are varicose veins, and are often linked to vein disease. They can also increase the risk of blood clots!
🩸 Development of ulcers or open wounds: Extremely weak circulation and blood pooling are signs of damaged or backward-flowing veins.
