Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that you can see just under the skin. They usually occur in the legs, but also can form in other parts of the body. Hemorrhoids are a type of varicose vein.
Your veins have one-way valves that help keep blood flowing toward your heart. If the valves are weak or damaged, blood can back up and pool in your veins. This causes the veins to swell, which can lead to varicose veins.
Varicose veins are very common. You are more at risk if you are older, are female, have obesity, don't exercise, or have a family history of varicose veins. They can also be more common in pregnancy.
Doctors often diagnose varicose veins from a physical exam. Sometimes you may need additional tests.
Exercising, losing weight, elevating your legs when resting, and not crossing them when sitting can help keep varicose veins from getting worse. Wearing loose clothing and avoiding long periods of standing can also help. If varicose veins are painful or you don't like the way they look, your doctor may recommend procedures to remove them.

BREAST CANCER
Breast cancer is a disease in which cells in the breast become abnormal and grow out of control.
There are different kinds of breast cancer and this depends on which cells in the breast turn into cancer.
Most breast cancers begin in the ducts (tubes that carry milk to the ni**le) or lobules (glands that produce milk). Breast cancer if not detected early, can spread outside the breast through blood vessels and lymph vessels. When breast cancer spreads to other parts of the body, it is said to have metastasized.
The spread of breast cancer is most dangerous because it can destroy major organs it spreads to like the lungs, and eventually lead to death.
Don’t Let Breast Cancer take you by surprise…
Stay alert and abreast with any abnormalities in your breast through routine self-exams, clinical screening and mammograms.

Stressed at work? You may want to get your blood sugar levels checked. According to a 2014 study in the journal Diabetes Care, job strain is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, independent of other lifestyle factors. "An association between job strain and diabetes is biologically plausible because stress response increases secretion of the fight-or-flight hormone cortisol," the study authors noted.
