Varicose and Spider Veins – Should me and my spouse see a doctor about varicose veins?

Should me and my spouse see a doctor about varicose veins?

 

The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services recommends that you ask these important questions about your wife when deciding whether to see the doctor:

 

Has the varicose vein become swollen, red, or very tender or warm to the touch?

• If yes, see your doctor.
  
• If no, are there sores or a rash on the leg or near the ankle with the varicose vein, or does your spouse think there may be circulation problems in her feet?
  
  
  
  • If yes, see your doctor.
    
  • If no, continue to maintain self-care.
