Live life to the fullest without varicose veins
Many people who have experienced or seen someone close suffer from varicose veins thinks the worst part of having varicose veins is to look at those swollen and inflamed veins in the mirror. Others think it’s the pain and tiredness or the greater risks associated with varicose veins. At USA Vein Clinics we believe that all these factors contribute to the problems created by varicose veins, but we know that trying to live with varicose veins is the key issue in this context. If left untreated, varicose veins can quickly turn your life from ‘living’ to ‘barely living’. We have been providing vein care since 2005, and have seen and helped many patients suffering from vein disease. We have always tried to educate patients about the misconception that it is fine to live with varicose veins or that they are a sign of aging and will go away by themselves. Once varicose veins develop, they cannot go away on their own and require appropriate medical attention and treatment.
Varicose veins are not just unsightly, they are the surface symptoms of a serious circulatory disease that restricts the proper flow of blood from your extremities back to your heart and lungs. If left untreated, vein symptoms can escalate very quickly and leave you feeling chronically weak and so tired that you no longer have the energy to enjoy your life. You will find yourself avoiding exercise and activities that you used to enjoy, as you feel like you have no more energy to participate. Finally, untreated varicose veins affect your mental health as well, making you feel depressed, with low self-esteem, low self-confidence and low self worth.
USA Vein Clinics uses the gold standard in vein care, called Endovenous Laser Therapy (EVLT). Our highly trained vascular specialists use the most minimally invasive and non-surgical treatment using a customized approach depending on the medical history, age and health condition of the patient. EVLT involves a precise insertion of a very thin (less than one millimeter) laser fiber into the diseased veins under real-time ultrasound guidance, followed by an application of laser energy to heat and close the malfunctioning vein, which is called vein closure. Other healthy veins take over normal blood flow in the leg immediately. Over time, the treated veins are absorbed by the body. Patients can go back home the same day and are given pain control medication to control any discomfort after the treatment. They resume their normal daily activities immediately.
If you have any symptoms of vein disease like restless legs and pain, cramps, itching, burning, heaviness and swelling, call (917) 267-5155 so we can schedule your initial consultation with one of our highly trained vascular specialists.
