Sun Lakes is a premier 55-plus retirement community of approximately 14,868 residents with a median age of 73.6 years. Based on national data, roughly 3,568 Sun Lakes residents may have visible varicose veins, and approximately 892 could show signs of advanced chronic venous disease.
Age is the single biggest risk factor for varicose veins. As we age, vein walls and valves naturally weaken, making it harder for blood to flow efficiently from the legs back to the heart. Sun Lakes residents who enjoy golf, walking, and outdoor recreation in the Arizona heat place additional demand on their venous system. The combination of age, heat, and activity can cause existing vein conditions to progress. Symptoms like persistent leg swelling, heaviness, nighttime cramps, or skin darkening around the ankles should prompt a vein evaluation to prevent complications.
After a gentle in-office procedure, Sun Lakes residents return to the resort-style lifestyle they love:
