What Are Varicose Veins?
At DFW Sports Medicine in McKinney, TX, we care for more than muscles and joints. We treat varicose veins with focused care and modern solutions. Dr. Rathna Nuti and her skilled team help people move better, feel better, and live better. With personalized treatment plans, we provide real answers for pain, discomfort, and swelling caused by vein issues. Varicose veins are large, swollen veins that appear dark purple or blue. They often twist or bulge just under the skin, most commonly in the legs. These veins happen when the valves inside the veins weaken. Blood begins to pool, making the veins swell. There are different types of varicose veins, including:
- Trunk varicose veins: Thick and visible, often bulging above the surface of the skin.
- Reticular varicose veins: Smaller and less raised but still visible beneath the skin.
- Telangiectasia (spider veins): Thin, web-like veins that spread on the skin's surface.
Though some people see them as only a cosmetic issue, they may cause pain, swelling, or a heavy feeling in the legs. Early care can help prevent more serious problems. To find out what's best for you, schedule a consultation with DFW Sports Medicine in McKinney, Frisco, or Lewisville, TX.
How Are Varicose Veins Treated?
Varicose vein treatment at DFW Sports Medicine includes a full evaluation, diagnosis, and customized care plan. Each patient is different, and so is the way we treat their veins. Our comprehensive care for varicose veins starts with noninvasive options, like compression therapy and lifestyle guidance. If needed, we offer minimally invasive procedures, such as sclerotherapy, radiofrequency ablation, and endovenous laser therapy. These treatments close off faulty veins and redirect blood to healthier ones. Healing is quick and effective with little downtime, giving patients safe relief from symptoms and better skin appearance.
What Are the Symptoms of Varicose Veins?
Some symptoms of varicose veins can be mild while others can affect daily life. The signs may get worse over time without treatment. Varicose vein symptoms can include:
- Aching or heavy feeling in the legs
- Swelling in feet, ankles, or legs
- Itching near the veins
- Cramping or throbbing pain
- Thickened or discolored skin
- Bulging, twisted veins visible on the surface
- Skin ulcers near the ankles in severe cases
DFW Sports Medicine Reviews
Dr. Nuti is thorough, professional, and genuinely cares for her patients. The speed with which her office responds to emails and messages is amazing. I sought her help with a medical issue and was so impressed that I switched my care for a wholly unrelated issue from another doctor to her.
Dr Nuti is an exceptional doctor! She listens, patiently answers questions. She is excellent at diagnosing my running injuries and prescribing exercises and/or PT.
