Varicose veins need a proper leg examination; symptoms alone do not show the severity. A venous Doppler of both legs is useful to check reflux and rule out a clot. Avoid prolonged standing, walk regularly and elevate your legs. You can consult me through Practo or visit Synergy Miraj for assessment.
Next Steps
Varicose veins need a proper leg examination; the severity cannot be judged from symptoms alone. I usually advise a venous Doppler of both lower limbs to check reflux and rule out clot. Avoid prolonged standing, walk regularly and elevate the legs; compression stockings should be chosen after examination. You can consult me through Practo or visit Synergy Miraj for an assessment.
Health Tips
Please arrange a venous Doppler and consult a physician or vascular surgeon, especially if there is swelling, skin discoloration or pain. Seek urgent care for sudden swelling, severe pain or breathlessness.
