A member asked:
Should i be concerned about the frequent popping up of veins in my lower legs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor: Varicose veins can be treated -- in addition to compression socks, minimally invasive techniques exist including laser, sclerotherapy, and micro-phlebectomy. These are office based procedures. In my practice, i see and evaluate every patient personally and perform an ultrasound on the spot. The options are carefully explained to you and i devise a treatment plan we are both happy with.
