Can Deep Venous Incompetence Be Treated With Surgery?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...Hello I am a 29 year old White male with deep venous incompetence. Can you tell me if there are any surgical procedures relating to deep veins that could resolve this deficiency in the valves of the deep veins.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
In mosct cases this is treated by heparin, elastic stockings and leg elevation. Surgery is indicated in refracter cases where nothing else works. It is made by opening the vein and evacuating thrombus. Also, small veins afr removed from he leg.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
