Varicose, Spider Vein Treatment & Vein Removal
- General Info
- When to seek treatment for varicose and spider veins: If you suffer from varicose and spider veins, you are not alone; it is estimated that nearly one in four people in this country experience some form of leg vein disorder during their lifetime. Understanding the roles of exercise, diet, and hormones can minimize your risk and control progression; but if varicose veins are already a problem, modern techniques, including spider vein removal have made treatment of this common condition more effective and safer than ever before. Symptoms of varicose veins and other vein diseases come in many forms and should be taken seriously. Symptoms such as bulging veins, blue veins and enlarged veins can be indicative of an underlying condition (venous reflux), which can progressively get worse over time if not treated. If the varicose vein has become swollen, red, or very tender or warm to the touch you should seek the attention of the doctor. Sores and rashes on the leg and near the ankle are also strong indications of circulation problems and you should consult with an experienced physician. If you are experiencing such symptoms call toll free at 1.888.ZIP.VEIN today for an appointment. Most vein symptoms are worse at the end of the day, in hot weather and after prolonged periods of standing or sitting. Many women experience worse vein symptoms around the time of their menstrual period. Leg elevation, aerobic activity and compression stockings can help to alleviate symptoms.

If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms in your legs, you may want to consider being evaluated by a vein specialist who can differentiate vein disease from mere cosmetic concerns: * Swelling * Bulging veins and enlarged veins * Red or blue veins close to the surface of the skin * Burning or throbbing veins * Bleeding * Skin discoloration * Leg pain * Tired, heavy, aching feeling * Itching * Numbness Swelling : Swelling or edema may occur in the lower part of the leg, usually around the ankle or in the feet. This is often more pronounced after longer periods of standing or sitting. Swelling often indicates vein problems occurring below the surface of the skin. An evaluation by a vein specialist should be sought. Unexplained pain or swelling in a leg can be indicative of blood clots. Varicose veins alone usually do not cause swelling of the legs. Bulging Veins and Enlarged Veins: Bulging veins that are swollen and raised above the skin surface (generally called "varicose veins") can occur anywhere on the leg, but are most often found on the inner thigh and/or the inner lower leg or calf. These may often be described as "ropey" or cord-like in appearance. Varicose veins are often accompanied with additional symptoms such as achy, heavy feeling legs; burning, throbbing and muscle cramping.
