Varicose Veins
The varicose vein is a condition that affects the veins of the body and makes them appear bulging, bluish and very prominently visible under the skin. This condition predominantly affects the legs and feet. Varicose veins occur when your veins become swollen and get twisted. Varicose veins on the surface network of veins may be mild and relatively harmless since they are caused by the overfilling of blood. However, if varicose veins affect the deeper network of veins, it can cause pain, discomfort and some serious problems.
Varicose Veins Treatment
Varicose Veins surgery is the best option to treat the ailment. You might be suggested any of the following surgeries by your doctor, depending on the severity of your ailment:
Laser/ radiofrequency ablation This is the simplest surgical procedure for the treatment of Varicose Veins. The procedure treats the affected veins by reducing the swelling with the help of short bursts of laser rays. The procedure is painless and there are no incisions made on the body.
Sclerotherapy A foam solution is injected into the small and medium-sized Varicose Veins. The solution helps scar the vein and close it over time. This leads to the reduction of Varicose Veins without any incisions in your body.
High ligation and vein stripping This surgery is done to tie a Varicose Vein before it reaches a deeper vein in the leg. This procedure is done on smaller Varicose Veins closer to the surface of the skin so that they can be removed without any problems.
Glue treatment A special surgical glue called cyanoacrylate glue is inserted to seal the Varicose Veins so that they cannot reach the inner veins of the leg that handle large volumes of blood circulation.
What is Varicose Veins Laser Surgery?
Varicose Veins Laser Surgery is a treatment that uses a laser to treat the wide, inflated, or twisted veins situated under the skin of the leg.
A laser fibre or an electrode is extended to the desired location of the vein. The laser is then applied, resulting in heating of the veins. As a result, the vein will shrink and collapse.
How does Varicose Veins Laser Surgery help?
The surgery helps in reducing the swollen or inflated varicose veins with the help of heat from the laser. The heat kills the walls of the veins, and the dead tissues are naturally absorbed by the body, and blood finds neighbouring walls to travel through.
