Manifestação mais comum da insuficiência venosa periférica crônica, as veias varicosas apresentam-se como dilatação e tortuosidade das veias superficiais das extremidades inferiores. A incompetência do sistema valvar venoso superficial impede o retorno do sangue venoso ao coração. A pressão venosa cronicamente elevada causa sintomas como sensação de peso, desconforto, fadiga nas extremidades, coceira e dor surda ou em queimação. | |||
