Why is Treatment required for Varicose Veins?
  • Blood is circulated in our body by arteries and
    veins. Varicose Veins is a condition which
    affects the veins of the legs and makes them
    enlarged. This causes overfilling of blood in
    these veins. These veins appear dark purple and
    are clearly visible through the skin. They may
    become swollen and painful. They may also cause
    heaviness and discomfort.
  • Spider veins is also a similar condition. But the
    affected veins are smaller, and it is generally
    painless.
  • What can cause Varicose veins?
  • The following reasons may lead to varicose veins
  • Standing for long hours
  • Obesity
  • Birth control pills
  • Heredity
  • During pregnancy
  • Trauma to lower limbs
  • How are Varicose veins diagnosed?
  • Firstly, the top varicose vein specialist in
    Hyderabad will have a look at the visible veins
    of your leg while you are sitting or standing.
    He/she may also ask you about the painful areas
    of the legs. Once this has been assessed, the
    doctor may get an ultrasound done. It is a
    simple procedure where veins are viewed and blood
    flow in the veins is measured using
    high-frequency waves.

During this treatment, a thin flexible
needle-like device known as the catheter is
inserted in the problematic vein. Waves are
passed through the catheter which closes the vein
from the inside. The treatment is done under
anesthesia and it is painless. This the gold
standard treatment and requires approximately
one hour, and the patient goes home the same day.
The patient can resume daily activities from the
next day. ? Sclerotherapy for Varicose veins It
is a painless and minimally invasive technique
for treating varicose veins and spider veins. A
solution is injected directly into the vein which
causes the affected vein to shrink. This forces
blood to change its route through healthier
veins. The shrunken vein gradually heals. If you
