What is venous insufficiency, how is it manifested?

Venous insufficiency is characterized by poor circulation of blood in the lower limbs: blood tends to stay in the lower limbs and has difficulty returning to the heart. This results in the following main symptoms:

Heavy legs: feeling that the legs are heavy, numb, swollen.

This usually happens at the end of the day, due to the heat, a long walk, a long standing or lying position, etc. The muscle pump is not used properly and this is when the insufficiency appears.

Cramps

Cramps account for 30% of cases of venous insufficiency. This is characterized by a persistent and abnormal contraction of a muscle in the leg, especially when standing or lying down.

Varicose veins

It's just an abnormally dilated vein
