  1. What are the best treatments for varicose veinsalleviation? Sclerotherapy: Injecting a solution in your veins will help to close them and they fade away with passage of time. You do not need to be admitted into the hospital for this and the procedure can easily be carried out on an outpatient basis at your doctor’s office. Sometimes, vein doctor near you may need to carry this out more than once. Clarivein: ClariVein is a vein ablation catheter used by trained physicians for treating incompetent veins (veins that cause leg swelling). This system uses a 360° rotating

  2. ablation tip as well as an infusion microcatheter to provide an effective treatment of axial veins for patients with varicose veins pain. One of the features of this procedure is that it is a technique for axial vein ablation that does uses the local anesthetic (lidocaine). This may be a good option for patients with lidocaine allergy. It is also an option where the vein to be treated is known to be very close to a nerve that could be damaged by heat based catheters. Dr. Muzammal Habib at Boston vein care Boston MA. has had extensive experience and success using infusion catheters for treatment of venous and vascular conditions and has been certified to use ClariVein in those patients he feels are appropriate candidates. Ligation and stripping (open surgery): Dr. Muzammal Habib at Boston vein care Boston MA use a technique to treat varicose veins called ligation and stripping, which involves tying off the vein in the affected leg and then. removing it. Two small incisions are made. A thin wire is passed through the vein and then carefully pulled out and removed through the lower cut in your leg. The blood flow in your legs will not be interrupted by the surgery. This is because the veins situated deeper within your legs will bypass the function of the damaged veins. Ligation and stripping can cause pain, bruising, bleeding and Deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Phlebectomy: Phlebectomy (also known as microphlebectomy, ambulatory phlebectomy,) is a technique for varicose veins removal. In this

  3. procedure, many small cuts (incisions) are made in skin through which the varicose vein is removed. Stitches are not applied. This procedure does not require a stay in the hospital. It may be done in your doctor’s office under sedation with anesthesia. Phlebectomy might be done beside with other treatment for this condition, including ligation and stripping, laser treatment, or radiofrequency treatment.
