Varicose Veins and their Impact on Self-Esteem
It’s no secret that most people think varicose veins are ugly – they are budging purple/blue veins, after all. However, many people are extremely self-conscious of these veins and refrain from exposing their legs in any way throughout the year. Shorts, short skirts and dresses, and bathing suits are all off limits.
Unfortunately, many people don’t live their life fully because they are afraid of exposing their brightly discolored, twisted veins.
