Vein Disorder Treatments Vancouver, WA
Receive Expert Care at Our Venous Treatment Center
Veins are located all over the body and are responsible for carrying blood to and from the heart. There are many veins in the legs, where blood has to work the hardest to travel. This is where most vein disorder symptoms occur. It can be difficult for blood to move back up the legs, which can cause damage to the blood valves and result in blood pooling up in the leg veins. This results in venous insufficiency, the onset of which is usually when the symptoms start to manifest.
If left untreated, venous insufficiency can lead to chronic venous disorders such as spider veins and varicose veins. At the Vancouver Vein & Surgical Center, we provide diagnosis, treatment, and management of all types of vein conditions. Whether your condition has just developed or has been a long-term health concern, our skilled vascular care team can help.
Vein disorders we treat include:
- Edema – A condition caused by excess blood pooling in the legs, causing them to swell.
- Spider Veins – Dilated capillary veins that lie close to the skin and cause discoloration in line or web-like patterns. Spider veins are usually just a cosmetic concern and otherwise not harmful.
- Varicose Veins – These are knotted, bulging veins that are both unsightly and painful. Can cause itching, pain, and throbbing sensations in the legs.
- Venous Stasis – This is a condition characterized by slow blood flow in the veins. This can cause changes in skin color and increase the risk of a blood clot.
- Venous Ulcers – This is the most severe stage of venous reflux disease. If occurs when blood flow has become so poor that an ulcer develops near the ankle.
At Vancouver Vein & Surgical Center, our knowledgeable vein specialists will provide you with an honest assessment of your condition and what we believe can be accomplished through treatment.
