Varicose veins can be a source of pain and annoyance, both externally and internally. Just because you are experiencing varicose veins does not mean there is nothing you can do. While varicose veins are unpreventable, you do have the choice to remove them.
There are many reasons why somebody would choose to remove varicose veins. They can be painful and cosmetically unappealing. While there are home treatments for varicose veins, these are usually ineffective and not recommended by medical officials. Vein specialists have the best knowledge, treatment, and experience to treat your veins.
One of the main health benefits of removing varicose veins is pain reduction. Pain can cause excess stress to both your physical and mental health. Removing unwanted varicose veins can restore and re-energize your body
If you’ve ever woken up in the middle of the night from the pain caused by varicose veins, you are not alone. Losing sleep is not only harmful to your immune system but can make you drowsy, confused, and can affect your mental well being. Free yourself of being dragged down by unwanted stress and tiredness by saying goodbye to varicose veins once and for all.
Varicose veins can make walking feel like a burden and add stress to your legs and knees. Once varicose veins are removed, the swelling associated with them that makes it difficult to walk is also removed. Walking is such an essential part of everyday life that the quality of life is greatly improved when your legs fully recover. Rejuvenating your mobility by removing varicose veins will bring so many new opportunities that otherwise seemed unthinkable or impossible.
While home treatments are out there to treat varicose veins, they are unlikely to be effective. Home treatments often do not reduce pain or other symptoms and still leave the external appearance of varicose veins. One of the most efficient treatments is varicose veins sclerotherapy.
Sclerotherapy is a procedure that effectively treats both varicose and spider veins. Sclerotherapy works by treating the affected vein with a foam solution. The solution will cause the vein to scar and fade until it completely disappears. The blood from the vein will be redirected into healthier veins close to the previous one.
It is important to note that sclerotherapy has a few side effects, but they are mostly temporary and minor. These side effects include bruising, small sores, discolored skin, tiny red blood vessels, and raised skin spots. Rarely, more severe side effects such as blood clots, allergic reactions, and swelling may require treatment.
Sclerotherapy is a fairly easy procedure that can be performed right in a doctor’s office. Anesthesia is not needed and the process usually only takes about an hour. After this procedure, patients should walk often to prevent blood clots from forming. Patients should also wear compression stockings, which are socks that decrease varicose vein symptoms by improving circulation, for two weeks.
