Swelling related to tired legs is frequently related to body position. This swelling in the legs will be aggravated when spending long periods of time without moving, such as standing or sitting for a prolonged duration. The swelling associated with tired legs can also be made worse by heat. In addition, muscle cramps, pain and tingling in the legs may occur. These symptoms related to tired legs may be the beginning of Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI), a problem that progresses and gets worse, even evolving into varicose veins.1
Treatments with venotonic and venoprotective drugs have shown to significantly improve the condition of symptoms related to swelling and CVI, which is characterised by heavy legs, pain and cramps at night.2
