This guide will help you understand the causes, symptoms, possible treatment methods and ways to prevent purple veins on your legs.
Most common causes of purple veins
Several key factors can contribute to their development:
Genetics – Heredity plays a key role. Certain genes that weaken the walls of blood vessels can be inherited and increase the risk.
Sedentary lifestyle – Sitting or standing for extended periods reduces blood circulation, leads to blood retention and additional pressure on the veins.
Overweight – Excess weight puts pressure on the veins in the legs, weakens the valves and leads to problems over time.
