Leg Vein Conditions

There several vein conditions that can affect your legs. Some vein conditions may look unpleasant but are harmless, but others can be symptoms pointing toward a vascular disorder.

If you suspect you have some of these vein conditions, you can schedule a consultation with Varicose to Perfect, a vein treatment center right here in Springboro, Ohio. Dr. Sukir Sinnathamby, a vascular specialist and board-certified physician, heads up our team. When you visit us, we will give you an evaluation and screening, diagnose your condition, and recommend treatment options.

Spider Veins

Spider veins are a mild form of venous insufficiency. They are typically harmless, but many patients find them unsightly and choose treatment to remove them. The spider vein treatments at Varicose to Perfect are very effective and non-invasive. Most patients can return to their normal routine almost immediately after treatment. They have a choice between the VeinGogh treatment, a non-invasive option that coagulates the blood through high-frequency energy bursts, or sclerotherapy, a more traditional treatment involving an injection.

Varicose Veins

The seriousness of varicose veins can vary. In some cases, they may be just a mild cosmetic issue, but they can also be an indicator of serious circulation problems. Typically, they are caused by blood pooling in the veins. The veins swell and bulge below the skin’s surface. This can lead to unpleasant symptoms like changes in skin color, fatigue, swelling, cramping, leg pain, a tingling or burning sensation in the legs, and restlessness.

Varicose vein treatments are often covered by insurance, but if you are concerned, our staff can help you figure out the documentation you need for pre-approval. Our treatments in the Springboro treatment center are minimally invasive, such as laser treatments and sclerotherapy.

Leg Ulcers

The most common type of skin ulcer is the venous leg ulcer, often found above the ankle. They are caused by increased lower-leg blood pressure and poor circulation. While men and women both get these ulcers, older women get them more commonly. Sometimes, untreated varicose veins can develop into leg ulcers. These ulcers can also be caused by blood clots, obesity, or standing for a long time. The treatments are often simple, such as reducing swelling with compression bandages.
