Expert Venous and Vein Disease Treatment

Vein disease, also called venous disease, can develop over months or years from malfunctioning vein valves in legs. Normally functioning valves prevent backflow of blood down the legs and keep blood moving towards the heart. In a patient with vein disease, broken valves do not hold a seal and blood pressure builds up in the lower legs, leading to pooling blood called venous stasis. This results in leg swelling and skin changes.

WHAT CAUSES CHRONIC VEIN DISEASE?

Anything that can physically damage vein valves can lead to chronic vein disease. Two common causes are deep vein thrombosis and superficial venous thrombosis. These are both conditions where blood clots form in veins. Once the clot dissolves, they leave scar tissue and permanent damage on the valves, preventing them from opening and closing properly. Also, some patients are predisposed to malfunctioning valves due to genetics and family history, such as a parent or grandparent with varicose veins. Women with multiple pregnancies are at a higher risk of developing chronic venous disease.

Pelvic tumors and vascular malformations, leading to abnormal flow of blood and pressure gradients in the vasculature, can lead to chronic vein disease. Additionally, chronic venous disease is associated with being overweight. Finally, weakness in leg muscles that squeeze blood back to the heart can also contribute to the development of vein disease.

WHAT ARE CHRONIC VENOUS DISEASE SYMPTOMS?

Chronic vein disease begins with small varicose veins, and can gradually progress to larger veins. As new veins develop and symptoms worsen, legs may experience swelling. This tends to occur more with long periods of standing or sitting. The swelling, when present for long periods of time, can lead to iron (hemosiderin) deposition in the skin known as lipodermatosclerosis. Later in the disease process, leg ulcers develop that require additional medical treatment to heal.

Symptoms of Chronic Venous Disease include:

Swelling of the legs or ankles (edema)
Pain that worsens with prolonged sitting or standing
Pain that improves with leg elevation
Pain when walking that relieves with rest
Cramping of the legs
Throbbing sensation in the legs
Achy feeling in legs
Heaviness feeling in the legs
Itchy skin and sensation in the legs
Thickening of the skin with “woody” changes
Skin around the ankles changing colors to red or brown
Wounds on the lower legs that do not heal, usually around and above the ankles
Newly formed varicose veins
Abnormally flaky skin, or abnormally moist skin
Tightness in the calves

HOW IS CHRONIC VEIN DISEASE TREATED?

The first step in treating venous disease is to reduce to pressure in the veins. Our experienced physicians will recommend treatment options based on the cause of your leg condition, your health status, and your history. Other factors we consider are:

Onset, duration, timing, exacerbating and relieving factors of your symptoms
Your age
Severity of your condition
Presence of ulcers and skin changes
Your past history of blood clots and DVT
Your ability to tolerate medications and procedures

Initial chronic vein disease treatment usually includes compression stockings, leg elevation, exercise, weight loss, moisturizing the skin to prevent cracks, and prescription medications. Many patients benefit from venous closure using radio frequency ablation and ultrasound guided percutaneous sclerotherapy.

In serious cases, venous closure may needed immediately, for instance to close a venous stasis ulcer. Some cases require a procedure to improve blood flow in deep veins of the legs, using angioplasty and/or stents.

Ultimately, the goal of our recommended therapy is to increase venous return from the legs (push blood back up the leg), thereby decreasing symptoms associated with vein disease and preventing further venous disease progression.

Our doctors are experts, providing you with the safest choice for successful treatment of vein disease.

Dr. Chan is one of the smartest, kindest, most compassionate doctors I have ever had the pleasure of being treated by. I originally went in for varicose vein and circulation problems in my left leg, and while performing my vein procedure, he took the time to look at my condition and realize something more was going on, and he has been a huge advocate for getting me healthy again. His staff is also extremely friendly and great to work with, and I am just so lucky I was steered towards going to him! I highly recommend Dr. Chan and his practice!!! – Brittany Y.
