10 Common Symptoms of Venous Insufficiency and Varicose Veins

The veins in our legs have many "one-way" valves which allow blood to travel up toward the heart. When you stand, the valves close in order to keep the blood from traveling backwards down the leg. 

Sometimes, the valves become damaged and will not close properly. This allows the blood to travel backwards in the direction of gravity. This valve problem is known as venous reflux or venous insufficiency.  The symptoms that occur because of the damaged valves are due to the high pressure that develops in the veins as the blood travels backward.

Over time the veins below the bad valves can become dilated and varicosed. This condition always progresses and often leads to complications such as skin damage, chronic leg swelling, blood clots, ulceration and even spontaneous bleeding.

Many people suffer from the symptoms of Venous Insufficiency and are completely unaware of the underlying problem.  Symptoms vary from person to person but the following symptoms could indicate venous insufficiency and require the attention of a doctor.

1. Leg aching, heaviness and tiredness that is worse at the end of the day
2. Leg swelling that is worse at the end of the day
3. Leg cramps at night
4. Itching
5. Restless legs
6. Blood clots
7. Eczema type skin rash on lower legs
8. Leg ulcers
9. Spontaneous bleeding
10. Occasionally patients experience a burning or numbness in their legs
