Hard Knot in Varicose Vein: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options – Elite Vascular
A hard knot in a varicose vein can be a concerning symptom, often indicating a complication such as superficial thrombophlebitis—a condition where a blood clot forms in a vein just under the skin. This knot may feel firm, tender, warm, or swollen, and is usually accompanied by redness and discomfort in the affected area. Common causes include prolonged standing, injury to the vein, or poor circulation associated with chronic venous insufficiency.
