Varicose (VAR-i-kos) veins are enlarged veins that can be blue, red, or flesh-colored. They often look like cords and appear twisted and bulging. They can be swollen and raised above the surface of the skin. Varicose veins are often found on the thighs, backs of the calves, or the inside of the leg.aricose (VAR-i-kos) veins are enlarged veins that can be blue, red, or flesh-colored.

When the average amount of hemoglobin per red blood cell is decreased, then the concentration is decreased. So, when the MCV is decreased, the MCHC is decreased. Increases in the MCHC are limited by the amount of hemoglobin that can fit inside a red blood cell.Severe burns or a disorder called hereditary spherocytosis can cause high MCHC values.hen MCV values are normal, the red blood cells are normal in size. They are called normocytic. However, a person with normocytic red blood cells can still be anemic when there are too few red blood cells or when other RBC indices are abnormal. This is called normocytic anemia.
MCH (mean corpuscular hemoglobin) refers to the concentration of hemoglobin in each red blood cell. If MCV and MCH are low, it means your red blood cells are smaller than average (MCV) and paler than average (MCH), and can't carry as much oxygen as normal. This is usually caused by an iron deficiency anemia. Red meat does contain iron, but it may be healthier to look for a multivitamin that includes iron.
