If you’ve considered having your problem with varicose veins in Clifton or spider veins treated, you may have learned the basic premise of treatment is to eliminate unhealthy veins with either surgical or non-surgical methods. Varicose veins in the legs are diseased veins that arise due to valve dysfunction. Valves in the veins function to return blood from the legs back to the heart. The proper opening and closure of these valves allows one direction flow of the blood to the heart. With valve dysfunction, the blood falls backwards or refluxes into the lower legs. This results in elevated pressures within the veins of the legs and causes vein dilation and symptoms of heaviness, pain,cramping. The medical condition is known as venous insufficiency. article source: http://nycvaricoseveins.amoblog.com/is-vein-removal-benign-18372255
