See vein specialist: Modern treatments effectively and painlessly treat veins. See a vein specialist for evaluation and treatment options. This condition is easily treated. Untreated, veins will worsen.

Multiple options.: Varicose veins are due to leaking (refluxing) valves usually in the saphenous vein system. There is a gold standard of treatment and lesser ways to treat these veins. The gold standard is to have a venous reflux exam and laser closure of the leaking valves followed by microphlebectomies or sclerothrapy of the vv. Lesser treatments would be support hose and observation. See a vein specialist.
