Expert Varicose Vein Treatment in Pretoria
The Vein Clinic provides comprehensive diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins and venous disorders. Led by Dr. E Osman.
Understanding Varicose Veins
Varicose veins are abnormally large, tortuous veins seen in the lower limbs. They result from increased venous pressure secondary to reflux through leaking valves. It is a progressive condition that worsens over time, which may lead to severe skin changes and chronic venous ulcers.
Common symptoms include leg swelling, pain, cramping, burning, itching, skin discolouration, and in severe cases, non-healing ulcers around the ankles.
Some cases may result from old clots in the deep venous system or rarely from a congenital condition called May Thurner syndrome.
Risk Factors
- – More common in females
- – Increases with age
- – Family history
- – Pregnancy
- – Standing occupation
- – Obesity & sedentary lifestyle
