Causes of varicose vein formation


Lymphedema is a condition that has to do with blockages in the lymphatic system, lymph-accumulating fluid that carries large proteins in molecular-subcutaneous tissue spaces. These are the main risk factors.

• Labor factors: affecting the venous system of lower limbs, increasing the volume of blood accumulating in tissues.
• Severe chronic venous insufficiency and lymphatic malformation.
• The polo players and their practices: is that the riders have this condition by pressure from the inside of the knees.
• Those who practice skiing, by pressure from his boots.
• Emptying groin by gynecologic or testicular tumors.
