Varicose veins are a pathological process in which the veins are damaged by a further increase in the diameter of the lumen and a thinning of the venous wall. The process follows the creation of local aneurysm-like extensions, called "nodules. "The most common variant of the disease are varicose veins of the lower extremities, which today affect every third woman and every tenth man. Such varicose veins have two types - internal and reticular (venous network). The disease begins, as a rule, at working age - up to forty years. Moreover, the more people lead a sedentary lifestyle, the more likely they are to develop varicose veins.
In addition to the pathology of the lower extremities, there is a dilation of the veins of the esophagus and stomach, small pelvis, sperm and testicles (varicocele). Sometimes varicose veins are found on the face, in the shape of spider veins. Enlargement of the uterine veins is quite rare, but still present.
