One result could be heart failure, which despite the sound of it is not an acute sudden and complete termination of heart function. If the 'left heart' fails, the part of the heart that specializes in moving blood from the lungs to the body, then there is usually a build-up over time of fluid in the lungs. If the 'right heart' fails, the part of the heart that moves blood from the body to the lungs for oxygenation, then there may be edema (swelling) in the body's extremities.

What would happen if veins stopped working?

If veins stopped working, the body's ability to transport deoxygenated blood back to the heart would be compromised, leading to poor circulation.
