A number of things: I would see a vein specialist/phlebologist. A venous ultrasound of your leg veins should be done to find the cause of your varicose veins and make a treatment recommendation. A treatment option that helps symptoms but doesn't make the veins go away is compression stockings. Other more definitive options include laser or radiofrequency ablation, ambulatory phlebectomy, and/or sclerotherapy.

See your doctor: See a vascular surgeon, interventionalist, or a specialist in phlebology. There are multiple ways to treat varicose veins that are low risk and highly effective. The best treatment plan is individualized!

Which treatment is done depends on the results of the ultrasound and the preference of the doctor.
