What Is The Treatment For The Swelling In The Varicose Veins?
I am 39 yrs. old and my height is 170cm, weight is 72kg. I am suffering from varicose veins since last 1 year. My left leg's veins are not swelling too much but I feel itching, heaviness and tired/restlessness every time. Presently I am using compression stockings and feeling bit relief. But it feels very uncomfortable to wear compression stocking everytime. I can walk properly and can perform my routine works as well. Now, I want to know about the right time for treatment and right way of treatment. Whether surgery or non-surgical treatment is better option. Please help me.

Temporary relief from varicose veins can be obtained by the compression bandage or crepe bandage or stockings you are using.Various interventional methods like sclerotherapy, laser ablation or surgery (open or Endoscopic) can be under taken.Out if these laser ablation is best.
