Varicose veins are enlarged, swollen and twisted veins mostly in reddish blue or dark purple colour. They appear just beneath the skin surface and mainly occur in the legs. Whenever blood pressure increases inside the veins it damages the veins, resulting in the formation of varicose veins.
Endovascular specialist, Dr. Bhavesh Arun Popat who provides varicose veins treatment in Mumbai, said that in India people with varicose veins problem don’t think of it as a serious illness. Patients affected by this disease, should not ignore this problem or take it lightly. Therefore, more than ever people should be made more aware of what varicose veins are, about its occurrence and its possible treatment.
Symptoms of Varicose Veins:
- Cord like twisted and bulging, purple or blue coloured, veins in legs
- Heavy feelings or pain in legs may accompanied with itching or dry skin around veins
- Burning sensation, swelling, muscle cramping in lower legs
- Uncomfortable or severe pain in leg after long sitting or standing
Fortunately in today’s time there are many successful medical treatments available to cure varicose veins; and from among them, the veneseal closure technique is the new preferred treatment by many medical experts and the patients.
Veneseal closure system is a treatment method approved by USFDA. In this procedure a special adhesive is used, which is a medical formulation devised to close the damaged veins segment and re-routing the blood flow through the nearby healthy veins system.
A varicose veins specialist inserts a syringe filled with the medical glue into a dispensing gun attached to the catheter. The catheter is then advanced into the diseased vein. The doctor conducts a series of trigger pulls and compression on the leg to transport the medical adhesive to the affected area to seal the vein. The catheter is removed and a small bandage is applied to the access area. Risk of nerve injury or the burning sensation associated with the other procedures is eliminated in venaseal closure technique. After the venaseal procedure it is reported that patients have experienced minimal pain, bruising and burning sensation.
Some of the benefits of venseal closure procedure are no hospitalisation, quick recovery period, painless & safe, USFDA approved, back to normal routine on the same day.
Not all patients can be opted for venaseal procedure; an evaluation by the endovascular specialist is required to suggest the suitability of the venaseal procedure on respective patients.
