How can i get rid of varicosities in my calf (not in superficial vein)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See vein specialist.: The ideal treatment for varicose veins is a venous reflux exam to look for leaking valves which are the source of the varicose veins. Correcting the varicose veins with a laser closure procedure would be the treatment of choice. You should see vein specialist for a full venous evaluation and to see why your veins are hurting you.
