Have a problem with varicose veins? Did you know that in the United States, women are most likely to get varicose veins, with an estimated 36% of women having them? Only about 20% of men in the United States have them. While no one exactly sure what causes varicose veins, it is believed that veins become abnormally thick and twisted from standing for long periods of time, and that genetics plays a big factor. Varicose veins are found throughout the body, but are most evident in the legs. For most people, varicose veins are just unsightly; but for others, varicose veins cause pain and discomfort.
It used to be that removing varicose veins required hospitalization and surgery. But those days are over! There are numerous vein clinics popping up throughout the States, offering non-invasive techniques to remove varicose veins, such as ultrasound and laser treatments. There’s an online vein clinic finder- it’s very convenient- to help you find clinics nearby to help with varicose veins. You can search the site by typing in your zip code.
Varicose veins are more than just unsightly- they can sometimes be painful. It’s great that modern medicine is being applied to help solve this problem! See the link to find a vein clinic near you.
