October 12, 2015. Winston-Salem, NC. Novant Health Vein Specialists, a leading NC vein treatment center, is announcing the publication of a new article on why varicose veins sometimes come back. According to the Winston-Salem vein center, recurrent varicose veins happen much less often today than in past decades.

NC vein doctor Dr. Ray Workman of Novant Health Vein Specialists explains, “There are a couple of reasons varicose veins can come back. One is if poor technique is used, which can occur if, for example, the treating physician does not have extensive experience in the latest minimally invasive treatments. Another reason they can come back is if all of the diseased veins are not detected and treated during the initial venous health examination. This occurred more often before the advent of ultrasound technology, which allows your doctor to “see” all the veins in your leg, even the ones deep beneath the skin surface.”

Dr. Workman goes on to note that at his NC vein treatment center, duplex ultrasound is a standard part of the venous health examination. This is done to ensure that all diseased veins are detected and treated. Dr. Workman further notes that they use only the latest minimally invasive procedures to ensure that the treatment is not only as permanent as possible, but also comfortable and quick.

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.
