Are all bluish surface veins varicosed?
People must not be too quick to identify any blue veins as being varicosed. The veins of fair-skinned people are often purplish in color and thin or athletic people are prone to slightly prominent veins. Varicose veins are slightly raised and appear upon standing. They are most often found at the back of the calf or on the inside of the leg, anywhere between the ankle and the groin.
