Varicose Veins

While women get varicose veins more often than men, as many as 45% of all men will get them at some point in their lives. However, because men are not as concerned about how varicose veins look, they typically don’t see a doctor until they have advanced disease. The reality is, varicose veins won’t go away by themselves. Left untreated, they may cause ulcers or potentially life-threatening blood clots.
