The initial stage of varicose veins can be very difficult to notice.

It is easy to confuse the illness, deciding that it is not a symptom of a disease, but ordinary fatigue.

Phlebologist surgeon Armen Avakyan spoke about this in more detail, writes Gazeta.Ru .

According to the doctor, non-obvious signs of varicose veins include swelling, fatigue and heaviness in the legs.

Cramps may also occur at night.

Avakyan noted that patients rarely seek help with such problems; they usually start to worry when veins become visible through the skin.

In a conversation with journalists, the doctor also clarified what exactly provokes the disease.

He noted that this is any static state, sedentary or standing work.

In addition, excess weight, irrational distribution of physical activity, uncomfortable shoes and even an unhealthy diet lead to the problem.
