That is totally dependent on symptoms or lack thereof.
Varicose veins can often be managed with lifestyle adjustments and treatments to improve circulation and reduce discomfort. Compression stockings help by applying gentle pressure, which can relieve swelling and discomfort. Regular exercise, especially walking, promotes blood flow, while elevating your legs when resting can ease symptoms. Minimally invasive treatments, like sclerotherapy or laser therapy, are available if symptoms persist or become more severe.

We’d love to discuss the best options for you in the clinic, so please schedule an appointment to explore ways to help you feel more comfortable.
