Brief Answer:
Please tell more details to be able to know treatment.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for the question.
I am a Vascular Surgeon and can help you with your problem.
But first, I would like to know what it the problem that the Varicose Veins are giving you.
They usually do not lead to any problems.
If you could send me a Photo then I would be able to better advice you.
And most important is to get a Color Doppler study of the affected limb done. If it has already been done, then please send me the report then I would be able to tell you what treatment to take.
We offer a wide variety of treatments depending on the degree of Varicosities and the Doppler report. The minimal most is Foam sclerotherapy which is delivered by small injections, and then there is Laser ablation or Radio-frequency ablation. If very advanced case then open surgery is preferred by a small cut in the groin and small cuts in the leg.
So please tell me the degree of the problem by way of photo and Doppler report and I can tell you what to do.
Take care and I will look forward for your reply.
