A member asked:
Sitting for a long time i think develop varicose veins, it feels heavy. mild for now. is anal fistula related or my knee due to trauma long time ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varicose veins: Varicose veins have no relationship to an anal fissure. A significant knee injury could injure the saphenous vein valves and lead to varicose veins but this is unusual. The most common causes of varicose veins in your age group would be genetics.
