Varicose Veins Repair

Overview

Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that often appear blue or dark purple and are commonly found in the legs and feet. They occur when the valves in the veins fail to function properly, leading to blood pooling in the veins. Varicose veins can cause pain, swelling, and discomfort, and may lead to more serious complications if left untreated.

How is Varicose Veins Repair done?

Consultation with a Specialist:
  • Schedule an appointment with a vascular surgeon or a specialist in vein treatment. A thorough medical history and physical examination will be conducted.
Diagnostic Tests:
  • An ultrasound or other imaging tests may be performed to assess blood flow and identify the specific veins affected.
Pre-operative Instructions:
  • Follow any specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider, such as avoiding blood thinners, fasting, or arranging for transportation home post-surgery.
Lifestyle Modifications:
  • Patients may be advised to maintain a healthy weight, exercise regularly, and wear compression stockings prior to the procedure..

Types of Procedures:
  • Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT): A minimally invasive procedure that uses laser energy to close off the affected vein.
  • Sclerotherapy: A solution is injected into the vein, causing it to scar and close.
  • Vein Stripping: A surgical procedure where the affected vein is removed.
  • Radiofrequency Ablation: Uses heat generated by radiofrequency energy to close off the vein.
Anesthesia:
  • The procedure may be performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on the method used and patient preference.
Duration:
  • The procedure typically lasts between 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Recovery:
  • Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days, although some may need to take a week off work depending on the procedure type and individual recovery.

  • Infection: Risk of infection at the site of surgery or injection.
