Like scleroderma, surgical methods allow you to convey into venous blood flow from surface veins to deep, while surgical intervention does not eliminate the cause of the disease, but only eliminates its consequences.Therefore, if after the surgery, a person does not obey the actual doctor's recommendations, then relapse is possible.

Each treatment method is considered to have serious contraindications, so the doctor should decide which option is right for you.To be completely confident in the accuracy of diagnosis and treatment as prescribed, it is better to undergo testing by some experts at the same time.It is worth forgetting that it is always easier to prevent the disease rather than treatment, so if you don't want to endure the pathogens, follow the simplest recommendations, and then there is no varicose veins.
