What Causes Varicose Veins?
Swollen, enlarged, or twisted veins that appear dark purple or blue in color lead to a condition called varicose veins.
- Faulty valves in the veins cause it. If you notice such symptoms, it's advisable to consult a varicose veins doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.
- It usually appears on the calves, legs, or feet.
- Increased blood pressure inside the veins can be a cause. Like in the case of a tumor, constipation, obesity, or even during pregnancy.
- Women are more likely to be affected by this condition.
- Common in men and women between the ages of 20 and 80 years.
- Very common, but most people don't visit the vascular surgeon for fear of surgery.
Symptoms of Varicose Veins
The most experienced veins of your legs may cause pain, a feeling of heaviness, and even fatigue. Swollen and bulging, blue-to-purple veins run through those legs. Varicose veins may also cause cramps in those legs and even itchiness around those veins. Some of the most popular symptoms of varicose veins would be discoloration of the skin around that area or sores that develop. Or for a better diagnosis and effective treatment, consulting a professional varicose veins specialist is recommended.

Best Varicose Veins Treatments
Varicose Veins Stripping
It is a surgical procedure for removing varicose veins from the thighs or the legs. It involves some risks:
- Heavy Bleeding
- Blood Clots
- Allergic reaction
- Bruising/Scarring
Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins
Laser treatment of the varicose veins is an advanced treatment done by a varicose veins doctor/interventional radiologist. The procedure is done without major sutures and cuts. The vein is accessed through a small needle. The catheter is inserted through the sheath, and mechanical ablation is done with the help of the catheter. This is followed by chemical ablation using medical agents. The procedure is done on a day-care basis, and the patient can be discharged on the same day.
Radiofrequency Ablation Varicose Veins
Radiofrequency ablation of varicose veins is a day care procedure, and patients can be discharged on the same day. The procedure is done without any major cuts or sutures. The procedure is done using an RFA catheter, which causes heat-based damage to the veins. The RFA generator is used to supply the energy. The procedure has no major complications and is highly successful.
Mechanochemical Endovenous Ablation (MOCA)
It is the latest technique used to treat varicose veins. Mechanochemical ablation uses mechanical trauma & sclerotherapy to ablate varicose veins. This treatment uses no heat, surgery, or anesthesia. It reduces the risk of varicose veins coming back, which normally happens in the case of the surgical method. The complications seen in the thermal techniques are comparatively rare in this procedure. MOCA has a higher success rate.
Varicose Veins Treatment: Before and After Results
Before Treatment: Varicose vein disease can cause disruption to the lifestyle. The varicose vein patients have multiple problems before treatment. Patients have swollen and dilated veins. Before treatment, a patient experiences discoloration in the legs, fatigue, pain, and heaviness, and it can result in ulcer formation. Patients often feel fatigued from doing long-time activities.
After Treatment: Varicose vein disease can be treated using laser treatment for varicose veins or radiofrequency ablation varicose veins. Patients receive good relief from symptoms after treatment. After the disease treatment, the patient gets relief from the pain and heaviness due to the disease. Over a while, the visible veins also disappear with good healing of the ulcers if present. Patients feel no major symptoms in doing physical activities like sports and recreational activities.
