Varicose Veins
Elevating the legs and applying a gentle massage with witch hazel can offer temporary comfort for mild varicose vein discomfort.
What you'll need
- Witch hazel
- A cotton pad
Steps
- Apply witch hazel to a cotton pad and gently pat over the affected area.
- Elevate legs above heart level for 15–20 minutes daily.
Important: Painful, rapidly worsening, or bleeding varicose veins need a doctor's evaluation — this is comfort care, not treatment.
