There are many possible reasons why you may be experiencing a leg cramp. In most instances, it’s a random chance due to sitting still too long. However, there can be many underlying conditions you may not be aware of. Some of the primary causes of leg cramps include:
Varithena is used for individuals navigating varicose vein conditions related to the great saphenous veins and other veins in the legs. It is a minimally invasive, prescription microfoam injection that collapses varicose veins to displace the blood to healthy, nearby veins. As a result, the Varithena procedure reduces the appearance and symptoms of the problematic veins.
The Varithena procedure involves administering controlled microfoam into the targeted veins using an injection or catheter and the guidance of an ultrasound. The microfoam injection collapses the diseased vein before the foam deactivates and redirects the blood. The treatment is non-surgical, though the injection site will be numbed for patient comfort.
The Varithena vein treatment has a high success rate when conducted by renowned experts, such as our team at Premier Vein & Vascular Center. Varithena can often eliminate the appearance of varicose veins and associated symptoms, including itching, swelling, throbbing, and more. Post-treatment, patients may expect minor swelling, bruising, or discomfort.
It’s important to note that while the Varithena procedure is highly effective, some patients may require a series of treatments. Many patients achieve substantial improvements in just one treatment. However, larger veins or those with numerous veins may require several treatments, each spaced at least five days apart.
One of the advantages of Varithena vein treatment is the timely duration of the procedure. The Varithena procedure is performed in-office here at Premier Vein & Vascular Center in Houston, TX. The entire process typically takes less than an hour. After a short observation period, patients may return home following their treatment.
While most Varithena side effects subside within a week, this treatment does pose the risk of more concerning complications and allergic reactions. Varithena may cause deep vein blood clots with symptoms including blueness, severe swelling, and pain. If you notice these symptoms or experience worsening discomfort, it’s imperative to contact your doctor immediately.
Varithena vein treatment does involve several temporary side effects. These side effects include:
The Varithena procedure can alleviate existing veins but cannot be used preventatively, as vein disease is classified as a progressive condition. Those who pursue the Varithena vein treatment remain at risk for developing future vein problems. However, regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding prolonged sitting can effectively mitigate new vei
Varithena vein treatment is multidisciplinary. This procedure can be used to alleviate a wide spectrum of varicose veins located in the great saphenous vein system, including:
