Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that often appear just beneath the skin’s surface, commonly affecting the legs. They occur when the valves in the veins fail to function properly, causing blood to pool and the veins to enlarge. Symptoms may include aching, heaviness, and discomfort in the affected legs, as well as visible bulging veins. Treatment options for varicose veins aim to relieve symptoms and improve appearance. Non-surgical treatments include compression stockings, which help reduce swelling and improve blood flow. Sclerotherapy involves injecting a solution into the vein to cause it to collapse and fade. Laser treatments and endovenous laser therapy use light to close off the affected veins. In more severe cases, surgical options such as vein stripping or ligation may be recommended. Maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and elevating the legs can also help manage symptoms and prevent progression. Consulting with a vascular specialist is crucial to determine the most effective treatment based on the individual’s condition and overall health.
