Dr. Omar, The Veins Doctor, leading Consultant Venous Surgeon and Phlebologist (varicose veins treatment) with an experience of over 13 years in varicose veins treatment.
The first fact that should be underlined is that Varicose veins, if treated properly and correctly, can be cured with the risk of recurrence as low as 3%. The idea that if you suffer from varicose veins you have to accept them and live with them all your life is not true.
The second fact is that even in the most advanced case of varicose veins, surgery can be carried out under local anesthesia and you go home (or to work, shopping, etc.) immediately after the procedure, walking absolutely normally.
Varicose veins are simply defined as a mechanical dysfunction of the veins, where the valves inside the veins are not working properly anymore. It can be genetic but other factors like the type of work, etc are factors that might contribute to worsening the problem but they might not be the cause.
Dr Omar is a consultant phlebologist and venous surgeon at the Whiteley Clinics with varicose vein clinic locations in London, Guildford and Bristol.
