Varicose vein
Varicose veins are enlarged and twisted veins that commonly develop in the legs. Factors such as prolonged standing, pregnancy, family history and other conditions affecting venous circulation can contribute to their development. Early evaluation can help determine the extent of the condition and the most appropriate treatment.
At Shilp Hospital, treatment options may include endovenous laser therapy for suitable cases, while more advanced disease may require surgical procedures such as perforator ligation and phlebectomy. Treatment is planned after assessing the affected veins and the severity of the condition rather than relying on a single treatment approach.
The aim is to address the underlying venous problem while managing the visible varicose veins and associated symptoms. A detailed evaluation helps determine whether a minimally invasive or surgical approach is more appropriate for the individual patient.
