What Is Venous Reflux?

Restore Healthy Circulation in Your Legs

Venous reflux is a chronic vein condition in which the valves inside your leg veins weaken and fail to close, allowing blood to flow backward and pool. Instead of moving efficiently toward your heart, blood collects in the lower legs, increasing pressure within the veins. Over time, this leads to symptoms such as heaviness, aching, swelling, cramping, fatigue, and visible varicose or spider veins, which often worsen with standing or prolonged sitting.

Signs & Symptoms of Venous Reflux

Venous reflux can affect how your legs feel and function throughout the day, often becoming more noticeable with standing or activity.

Common signs and symptoms may include:

  • Leg heaviness or aching
  • Swelling in the lower legs or ankles
  • Cramping or restless legs
  • Throbbing or burning sensations
  • Fatigue or tired legs by day’s end
  • Visible varicose or spider veins
  • Skin discoloration or texture changes
  • Symptoms that worsen with prolonged standing
