If you happen to see
twisted and bulgy veins in bluish or purplish color at your ankles and legs, do
not panic for those are only varicose veins. When blood cannot flow back to the
heart because of weakened valves, blood is pooled to the legs. As the pressure
shoots up, veins become weak and dilated. Varicose veins do not cause potential
life threatening problems, but the presence of it can lead to other conditions.
Plus, they are not great to look at.
