Specializes in Vascular Surgery

Veins & Pregnancy: Initially you should get fitted for a pair of maternity compression stockings at a medical supply store to prevent the vein from worsening. Get a vein ultrasound now to rule out blood clots. After delivery, seek expert opinion from a vascular surgeon who specialized in vein treatments, as you will likely need treatment of the veins to prevent them from progressing & causing future problems.
