What Are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are veins—usually in legs—that become enlarged, twisted, and often visible under the skin. They occur when the one-way valves inside veins weaken, allowing blood to pool. Over time, this causes stretching, bulging, and symptoms.
In Bangalore’s climate and daily habits (sitting long hours, lack of movement, heat), vein stress increases. Early detection matters: preventing progression spares you from discomfort, skin changes, or needing surgery later.
Symptoms of Varicose Veins
-
Heaviness or aching in legs, especially toward evening
-
Visible bulging or ropey veins, often bluish
-
Swelling around ankles or feet
-
Night cramps or burning sensations
-
Itching or skin discoloration near ankles
-
A feeling of restless legs
If two or more signs persist for more than 2 weeks, it’s time to consult Dr. Sravan in Basavanagudi, Bangalore.
Why Varicose Veins Develop
-
Genetics / Family history — weak vein valves may run in families
-
Prolonged standing or sitting — common in office, retail, or commuting life
-
Obesity / weight gain — extra pressure on leg veins
-
Hormonal changes / pregnancy — increasing vein stress
-
Age & wear & tear — valves weaken over time
-
Leg injury or prior DVT — damage to veins can worsen circulation
In Bangalore’s environment, heat, dehydration, and sedentary habits amplify these risks.
Best Treatment Options in Bangalore with Dr. Sravan
Treatment is not one-size-fits-all. As a vascular & endovascular specialist, Dr. Sravan tailors based on vein anatomy, symptoms, and patient preference.
Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT)
A minimally invasive, laser-based procedure that closes off problematic veins under ultrasound guidance. Ideal for moderate varicose veins. Recovery is quick and most patients resume walking same day.
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
Uses radiofrequency energy to heat and collapse unhealthy veins. Comfortable, less bruising, and often chosen for larger or long vein segments.
Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy
A liquid or foam is injected into the vein to scar and close it. Suitable for smaller branches or remaining residual veins, often in conjunction with primary treatments.
Most patients walk home the same evening and resume normal activity within a few days.
Prevention & Lifestyle Tips
-
Take short movement breaks (walk 5 min every hour) during desk work
-
Daily walking or leg exercise (ankle pumps, calf stretches)
-
Leg elevation (15–20 cm) when resting
-
Stay well hydrated and eat high-fiber diet
-
Maintain a healthy weight
-
Use compression stockings if advised (especially in long travel or standing)
-
Avoid crossing legs constantly; shift posture
-
Practice yoga / calf stretches that improve circulation
These changes, even in Bangalore’s traffic-heavy life, make a difference over time.
