Prevention and maintenance
Purple veins can be a warning sign of an underlying medical problem. If they persist or are accompanied by pain, swelling, or other symptoms, it’s important to see a doctor. In the meantime, the following lifestyle changes can help:
Maintain a healthy weight – Reduces strain on veins.
Regular exercise – Physical activity improves circulation and strengthens leg muscles. Aim for at least 30 minutes of activity every day.
Alternate work and rest – If your job requires standing or sitting for long periods, take short breaks.
Wear compression stockings – They prevent blood from pooling.
Limit high heels : wearing them frequently increases pressure on the veins.
