Approximately 50 percent of adults age 50 and older, both males and females, have varicose veins and help is available, announces VeinHealth.com.au
Melbourne, Victoria - March 3, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —
Varicose veins remain a problem for many individuals, with an estimated 50 percent of adults over the age of 50 suffering from this condition. However, individuals of any age may find they have varicose veins, and both men and women are affected. Individuals who spend a great deal of time on their feet are more susceptible to these issues and the same is true of those with a family history of this condition. Anyone looking for varicose veins treatments will find there are now many options available.
"Women who are overweight are at more risk of developing these veins," Peter Paraskevas, spokesperson for Vein Health Clinic, explains. "Any woman who has a BMI that is higher than 30 is three times as likely to suffer from this condition. Men aren't excluded, however, as approximately 45 percent now struggle with varicose veins."
VenaSeal is one option for people with varicose veins. With this treatment, a specially designed glue is used to shut the vein and, with time, the vein hardens and dissolves. This treatment can be done on an outpatient basis and only requires the use of a local anesthetic, something patients are sure to appreciate.
"In the past, vein stripping was common, yet scarring was a concern. In addition, the varicose veins would often come back. Furthermore, blood flow to the veins could be an issue, in the event the deep vein system was damaged, and other problems, such as nerve injury, could occur. New treatments help to reduce or eliminate these issues," Paraskevas continue.
Endovenous laser ablation is another procedure that may be offered. Again, the vein is nicked before a laser is used to collapse the interior wall of the vein. With time, the body absorbs the vein as part of the healing process. The doctor determines which procedure is right for each patient.
"Vein health needs to be a priority for all. Many individuals simply view them as a cosmetic issue, but nothing is further from the truth. If this problem is left untreated, a person may find their legs swell, the skin discolors, or the lower leg and ankle become hard. Contact us today to discuss the various treatments available today, as new technology allows for better success,"
