What are Varicose Veins?

• Varicose veins are veins under the skin that have
  become swollen, twisted and bulging. They
  are usually seen in the legs and feet.
• The veins of the lower limb have one way
• valves that keep the blood moving
• towards the heart.
• If the valves are weak or become
• damaged, blood can back up and
• pool in the veins.

• Over time, the continuous pooling cause
• the veins to become stretched, swollen.
• Raised pressure in these veins also causes
• development of spider veins.

What causes Varicose Veins?

• It is more common in females. This is because
  of hormonal factors like puberty, pregnancy,
  menopause and use of birth control pills.
• It is also seen in people who have to stand for
  long hours eg. Bus conductors, teachers
• Other factors include ageing, obesity, lack of
  exercise and leg injury.

How are Varicose Veins diagnosed?

• Varicose Veins are usually diagnosed by a simple
  physical examination. However, other tests are
  needed to assess the extent of the problem and
  rule out any other condition.
• Most commonly you will be advised to
• do a Venous Color Doppler by
• your doctor.

Treating Varicose veins

• LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIONS
• These include losing any excess weight and doing
  physical activity, such as swimming or walking.
•  Avoid standing for long periods of time as this
  causes pooling of blood in the veins.
•  While sleeping keep the legs
• elevated by placing 2 pillows
• under the feet.

• VENOUS / COMPRESSION STOCKINGS
• They help to maintain the blood flow in the leg
  veins and reduce leg swelling.
• They also help to reduce the risk of blood clots
  forming in the veins.
• Note The stockings are worn during the day and
  taken
• off before going to bed at night. They should be
• worn again the first thing in the morning.

• ENDOVENOUS LASER ABLATION

  diode laser with dual wavelength
• The ELVeS Radial fibers are used in this
  procedure. This highly advanced laser was first
  introduced in the country at Healing Hands

• ELVeS Radial fibers are extremely
  effective.

  minutes. Patients can return to their daily
  activities on the next day of the treatment.
