Varicose veins can appear anywhere on the body; however, they are most commonly found on the legs.
Varicose Vein Risk Factors
The risk factors for developing varicose veins are similar to those for chronic venous insufficiency. They include a family history of varicose veins, venous insufficiency, gender, obesity, age, pregnancy, and work requiring prolonged sitting or standing.

What Are Varicose Veins?
Vаrісоѕе vеіnѕ, аlѕо knоwn as “vаrісоѕіtіеѕ,” are еnlаrgеd and unhealthy veins usually arising due to high pressure in veins slightly deeper within the leg. They may be tortuous or twisted and may bulge from under the skin. You’ll find that they can be red or purple in color.
Varicose veins occur when the vein valves that help your blood flow back to the heart become weak or damaged, causing blood to pool in the veins. This can lead to discomfort, swelling, and aching in the affected area.
Are Varicose Veins Dangerous?
Varicose veins are often treated for cosmetic reasons or personal preference. More often, heaviness, restless legs, or pain will prompt attention. Varicose veins can be an early sign of more serious circulation issues in the veins. Skin discoloration, swelling, bleeding, DVT, and ulcerations are associated with untreated varicose veins and require an evaluation by a vein specialist.
Does Insurance Cover Varicose Vein Treatment?
Our vein doctors will consider an ultrasound during your initial consultation to learn more about your condition. Your vascular specialist will create a personalized varicose vein treatment plan based on your history and test results. With your approval, this will be submitted to your insurance carrier for pre-authorization.
