Regular Walking

for Varicose Veins

Daily walking of 30–60 minutes to activate the calf muscle pump and improve venous return from the legs.

How it works

The calf muscle acts as a secondary pump — contracting during walking compresses leg veins and pushes blood back toward the heart, reducing venous pooling.

What to watch for

Avoid high-impact exercise that involves prolonged standing without movement. Swimming is also excellent as water pressure aids venous return.
