“Can a phlebologist treat my mother's leg swelling?”
My mother has a swelling in the leg, which our GP has recently diagnosed to be due to an inflammation of the vein. According to our GP it will have to be treated surgically. Can a phlebologist help in treating this condition through medicines?

There are a variety of doctors who treat varicose veins. I am a Radiologist and a Phlebologist. I would recommend an ultrasound screening of your mother's legs to determine which veins need to be treated and if they could be treated by laser ablations or sclerotherapy (injections).
