Varices (varicose veins) is a pathological process characterized by the extension of the level of the veins, and a violation of the outflow of venous blood from the legs. The venous system has special valves, with which the blood flows in one direction (towards the top), and does not stagnate in the legs. The malfunction of these valves leads to the emergence of a current of return of blood, causing the stagnation of venous blood in the lower limbs and the development of symptoms of varicose veins.
