A varicose vein is a condition that usually occurs due to weak veins in the legs. As the veins get weaker, they tend to swell up, twist, and most likely deform and cause a great deal of pain and discomfort.

What Causes Varicose Veins?

The veins in our body have valves that are meant to stop the blood from flowing in the wrong direction. When these valves do not work the way they intend, the blood starts to pool up, thus causing the veins in the legs to swell up and ache. These veins can be seen through the skin, and even if not cause pain can cause embarrassment.

Symptoms and Causes of Varicose Veins: 

Symptoms of Varicose veins may differ from person to person, but some of the most common symptoms could be:

  • Discoloring of the skin
  • Deep red or blue rashes
  • Pain in the legs
  • Heaving burning sensation in the leg
  • Swelling

Some of the common causes of developing varicose veins are genetics, hormonal changes during puberty, menopause, or usage of birth controls.

It also happens to people who stand for a long time at a stretch or obesity. You can visit Dr.Abhijit Gotkhinde at Ultra Care Clinic for Varicose veins treatment in Pune.

Diagnosis of Varicose Veins:

Diagnosis of Varicose veins is usually made by a GP. You will be asked to share your family history, your BMI, if you are pregnant, about any blood clots in the veins or injuries to the leg. He may also refer you to a vascular specialist for further investigation if needed. A test duplex ultrasound test is also done in which high-frequency sound waves are used to print a picture of your veins to detect varicose veins.

Treatment/Management of Varicose Veins:

For mild symptoms of varicose veins, you will need to lose excess weight and sleep with your legs elevated. You can also consult a varicose veins doctor in Pune. Use venous/compression stockings, which regulate the blood flow and keep the swelling down. For severe cases, one can go through open surgery in which the veins are tied up to prevent the blood from flowing in the wrong direction or get ligation done where the vein is completely removed.
