In the veins, there are valves which make sure that the blood is following in the right direction towards the heart. Unfortunately, at times, the valves in the veins can fail (commonly in the legs) which makes the blood to be collected here. When the blood gets collected in this way, the vein will either enlarge or will get distorted.
