A. Varicose veins can be a serious disorder that restricts work and leisure activities for both men and women. Thrombosis (blood clots), spontaneous bleeding and skin ulcers are complications of varicose vein disease. Also, if varicose veins are left untreated, smaller veins may take on additional work which can be associated with worsening symptoms.
