Chicago Vascular Doctor: 4 Important Vein Disease Facts
September 19, 2015. Chicago, IL. Chicago Vein Care Center has released a new article to reveal 4 important facts about venous reflux disease to local patients and the community. According to the center, vein disease affects at least half of all people who are aged 50 and above. By releasing the article, the Chicago vein treatment center hopes to help area residents better understand the gravity of venous disease as a medical condition, not simply a cosmetic concern.
The center’s Chicago vascular doctor has many years of experience detecting, diagnosing, and treating the conditions that affect the veins, including venous reflux disease. According to Dr. Ramon Castro, “The vein valves become dysfunctional due to certain factors, and then the blood falls backward inside the vein.” This condition is associated with poor circulation, varicose veins, and numerous uncomfortable symptoms such as pain, skin irritation, and throbbing in the affected veins.
Venous reflux and many other venous conditions can be treated through minimally invasive procedures that work to seal off the problem vein. Compression stockings and exercise are often recommended to help slow the progression of this and other venous diseases.

Varicose Vein Treatment Options
Varicose veins and spider veins affect over 30 million people in the United States. Varicose veins are twisted, rope-like veins on the surface of the skin that may bulge and are usually bluish in color. Spider veins are small, web-like veins that appear reddish on the surface of the skin. Men and women suffer from varicose veins and spider veins, but women are more likely to have them.
The newest treatments for varicose veins and spider veins have a lot going for them. Endovenous laser treatment, sclerotherapy, radio frequency ablation and microphlebectomy are all minimally invasive treatments that can be performed in a vein specialist’s office in about an hour. This means minimal downtime for the patient, few side effects, and terrific results.
