Varicose veins occur when weakened vein valves prevent blood from flowing efficiently back to the heart, causing veins to become enlarged, twisted, and painful. Patients may experience aching legs, heaviness, swelling, itching, skin discoloration, cramps, or venous ulcers. Left untreated, symptoms can progressively worsen and affect mobility. Dr. Abhilash V performs a detailed vascular evaluation using Doppler ultrasound to determine the severity of venous disease. Treatment options include compression therapy, lifestyle modifications, endovenous laser ablation, radiofrequency ablation, foam sclerotherapy, and minimally invasive surgical procedures. The objective is to improve circulation, relieve symptoms, prevent complications, and enable patients to enjoy a healthier, more active lifestyle.
