Have you been dealing with difficult spider or varicose veins? These types of veins cause issues for millions of people across the nation. For some, they are only an eyesore, but for others, these veins can be incredibly painful. Fortunately, there are several different forms of spider and varicose veins treatment, with one of them being VenaSeal. When you first see your care provider about VenaSeal, there are a few different questions that you should ask. We have put together five key questions below that you should ask about the VenaSeal procedure.
The first question to ask your doctor should be whether you are a good candidate for VenaSeal. Whether it is the best method of treatment depends on the severity and extent of your case. If VenaSeal is not the best option, several other types of treatment may work better.
You should ask what exactly occurs during VenaSeal so that you can have an overview of the procedure. We will provide a brief summary, but you should still ask your care provider for a detailed explanation. VenaSeal essentially uses a catheter that is inserted into the vein. Once the catheter is in the ideal position, it will be used to administer adhesive into the vein to seal it shut.
You should ask your doctor how long they have been doing the VenaSeal procedure and how many they have performed. The VenaSeal closure system is a somewhat new procedure compared to other forms of vein treatment and you want to make sure that your provider is experienced in performing it. This is not to say that because they recently learned the procedure that they will be bad at it, but it is typically better to have a practitioner that has done the procedure numerous times.
Fortunately, the recovery time for VenaSeal tends to be pretty quick, but you should still ask your doctor about all the details of recovery from the procedure. Find out the exact steps you will need to take at home to assist your recovery. You should be able to resume your normal activities soon after the procedure, but your doctor may have other recommendations based on your particular case. Also, ask what you can do to help prevent varicose or spider veins from returning after the procedure.
If you are satisfied with all of the information that your doctor has provided and you are a candidate for the procedure, then it may be time to ask when you can get it. VenaSeal has shown to be a quite effective method for addressing spider and varicose veins, and it may be able to help you greatly. Not only will it help get rid of those veins for cosmetic reasons, but sealing them up may also help ease the pain that they can often cause.
