When Should You See a Doctor?
See a phlebologist if you notice:
- Dilated or bulging veins
- Heaviness and fatigue in the legs
- Swelling by the end of the day
- Pain, burning, or discomfort
- Night cramps
- Skin changes in the lower leg area
How Do We Perform Diagnostics?
The doctor conducts a consultation and examination, after which, if needed, an ultrasound of the lower limb veins is performed. This allows assessment of blood flow, the condition of the venous system, and determination of further treatment strategy.
Treatment
Depending on the condition of the veins, modern endovenous treatment methods, sclerotherapy, and other techniques may be used.
Our goal is not just to remove visible veins, but to identify the cause of the problem and select the optimal treatment.
