Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are enlarged, raised veins which can be easily seen on the surface of the legs, particularly when standing for long periods of time. They can be very winding, ropelike, and often dramatically large. They are located deeper than the spider veins and are usually the result of insufficiency of the great or small saphenous veins, which are the larger veins inside of the leg. They are often associated with spectrum of symptoms including pain, heaviness, burning, or swelling but can also lead to skin changes, including ulcerations. These symptoms are exacerbated by prolonged standing and are often progressive throughout the day. Depending on the source of abnormal blood flow to the varicose veins, they can be treated with Endovenous Laser Therapy, Mini-Phlebectomy, or Sclerotherapy.
