There are many types of varicose veins on the market today. The active ingredients will penetrate through the epidermis and affect the vein wall, promoting blood circulation easily to help reduce disease symptoms. When using topical drugs for varicose veins, patients need to pay attention to some characteristics for the drug to maximize its effectiveness.

Hello doctor, I work as an office worker and sit a lot. Recently, I feel pain in my calf. When I went to the doctor, I was diagnosed with varicose veins. May I ask what are the methods of treating this disease at Vinmec? I thank you.

Venous insufficiency of the lower extremities is a hemodynamic disorder that causes blood to stagnate in the veins and return to the heart with difficulty. When blood accumulates in the veins, it causes symptoms of leg swelling and blood clots. If not treated promptly, the blood clots will follow the blood flow to the heart and cause pulmonary embolism, endangering the patient's life.

Varicose veins usually only affect the aesthetic factor. In case the patient does not have measures to reduce varicose veins, it can progress severely, causing many effects on the quality of life. Performing treatment methods according to the doctor's instructions is the most effective measure to control this condition.
