November 16, 2015. Winston-Salem, NC. Novant Health Vein Specialists, a leading NC vein treatment center, is announcing the publication of a new article on how to maintain the health of patients’ veins after vein treatment, so they don’t have to return to the clinic for more services. According to the Winston-Salem vein center, patients can definitely affect their chances of having to have repeat vein treatments in the future.

NC vascular doctor Dr. Ray Workman of Novant Health Vein Specialists explains, “The underlying health of the veins depends on age, the family history of vein disease, on body weight, eating well and on getting regular exercise. While there’s not much our patients can do about their age or their genetics, there is a lot they can do about their diet and exercise habits. We are here to help them with those things.”

Dr. Workman goes on to suggest that an NC vein doctor can provide patients with a personal risk profile at their initial visit to the Winston-Salem vein clinic. This profile can be useful to patients before, during and after treatment, as a guide to how to prevent the need for future vein treatments. He emphasizes that the staff of NHVS is available to patients at any time, even when their treatment is complete, to help them stay healthy and avoid recurrent varicose veins.

Varicose Vein Treatment Options
Varicose veins result from malfunction of their one-way valves which normally promote the return of blood from the extremities back to the heart. Blood backs up in the veins increasing the pressure against the vein walls resulting in bulging veins. More than just a cosmetic nuisance, however, varicose veins can lead to leg pain, swelling and discoloration.
Many people are unaware of the affordable, effective treatments available to eliminate varicose veins. Modern advances in technology have expanded treatment options to include techniques such as sclerotherapy, radiofrequency ablation and endovenous laser therapy. All of these procedures are well tolerated. They are performed by a highly skilled vein doctor on an outpatient basis with most patients able to return to work the next day.
