Sock Marks Could Hint at Your Health: When Leg Indents Matter
Sock marks on the legs are usually harmless and common after long days, but if lines are asymmetric, worsen over time, or come with leg swelling, fatigue, or shortness of breath, they could signal health issues like venous problems, kidney disease, or heart failure—consult a doctor. To reduce marks, elevate legs, stay hydrated, watch salt intake, and wear comfortable or compression socks.
