varicose veins
Veins have the job of assisting the arteries with the job of circulating the
blood. If the tiny valves of the inner walls of the veins do not work
properly, then blood accumulates and causes stretching and bulging.
Varicose veins look lumpy and bluish and can ache and feel sore. They
may be the result of constipation, thrombophlebitis, liver disorders,
calcium and magnesium def ciencies, heredity, working in jobs that
require a lot of standing, habitually sitting with crossed legs, wearing tight
clothing, and being pregnant or having borne children, along with poor
diet and smoking.
