Varicose veins are swollen and enlarged veins that often appear blue or purple. They can cause leg pain, ankle swelling, itching, leg cramps, and broken capillaries.
Risk factors for varicose veins include pregnancy, prolonged standing, menopause, genetics, and advancing age. Because varicose veins can cause complications such as blood clots and skin ulcers, they need to be treated. Here are some health and aesthetic benefits of getting varicose vein treatment in Schaumburg.
Pain Relief
Getting varicose vein treatment in Schaumburg will eliminate your leg pain. You may also sleep better at night after your vein treatment because varicose veins can cause unpleasant sensations in your legs that make you want to either get up and walk around or move your legs in bed. Restless leg syndrome is a common complaint of people who have varicose veins, however, once the veins have been treated, nocturnal leg pain and movement disorders of the legs will subside.
Enhanced Appearance
Bulging varicose veins can make you less confident about your appearance. In some cases, they can lead to social isolation and depression. After your vein treatment, you will feel more confident when wearing your favorite clothing because you won’t be concerned about people staring at your legs. Heavy leg makeup that some people wear to conceal their varicose veins can also look unnatural and rub off on their clothing. After your treatment, leg makeup will no longer be necessary.
