Varicose veins usually appear as bulging, bluish cords just beneath the surface of your skin. They are commonly seen around the legs and feet. Although these tend to be painful and somewhat disfiguring, they are usually harmless and do not warrant the need for Urgent Care in Montclair, California.
Common Causes
Varicose veins do not appear for no reason. These are caused by putting too much pressure on the legs or abdomen. Pressure inducers include pregnancy, obesity, and standing for long periods. Age is also an inducer. As we age, our veins weaken.
Crossing your legs while sitting is a common misconception, it does not cause varicose veins but it can aggravate existing conditions.
Some people tend to not mind having varicose veins, but some wish to have them removed. Above Urgent Care Center has the perfect solution for this problem. We offer Sclerotherapy, also known as spider vein removal therapy. Our physicians will inject a solution into each affected vein, which then causes that vein to collapse and fade.
Should you wish to get your varicose veins treated, just drop by our Walk-in clinic in California to get assessed by our physicians.
