Question: When is the right time for treatment of my varicose veins?
We know that when veins are diseased, they worsen over time and often affect other veins, making what began as a simple problem, far more complex. Timing of treatment really depends on presence of venous complications and quality of life impairment. In the presence of leg ulcers, blood clots or advanced venous conditions with skin findings, there is urgency for treatment. Another indication is simply when your quality of life is impaired to the point it affects your routine daily activities.
Quality of life impairment may be cosmetic concerns or related to the symptoms of sustained varicose veins. The sooner you start getting your veins treated, the easier they are to treat and control.
