Don’t Ignore the Signs of Varicose Veins
Do you often experience bulging veins, heavy legs, or swelling around your ankles? These symptoms may be more than just fatigue — they could be early signs of varicose veins or poor blood circulation. At INS Orthotics LTD, we provide clinically recommended compression stockings that offer relief, promote better circulation, and help prevent complications.
What Are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that usually appear on the legs. They develop when the valves in your veins stop working properly, causing blood to pool. If left untreated, they can lead to discomfort, skin discolouration, or even ulcers.
Common Symptoms to Watch Out For
- Bulging or bluish veins under the skin
- Heavy, achy legs — especially after long hours of standing
- Swelling in the lower legs and ankles
- Burning, throbbing, or cramping in the legs
- Itching around affected veins
How Compression Stockings Help
Compression stockings apply graduated pressure to your legs — with the most pressure at the ankles and gradually less going up the leg. This helps to:
✅ Improve blood flow back to the heart
✅ Reduce swelling and fluid retention
✅ Prevent vein pooling and varicose progression
✅ Relieve pain and feelings of heaviness
✅ Support recovery after surgery or long travel
