Hello,
Endovenous treatment of Varicose veins is now the standard of care for this disease.
This can be treated by Radiofrequency Ablation or Endovenous Laser therapy.
You can meet Dr.Venkatesh Kasi, an Interventional Radiologist like myself at Kovai Medical Center and Hospital, Coimbatore for this treatment.
