Radiofrequency Ablation Therapy for Varicose Vein

Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. It uses controlled radiofrequency energy to heat and seal the affected vein, redirecting blood flow to healthier veins and improving circulation.

Treatments

  • Performed under local anesthesia.
  • A thin catheter is inserted into the vein.
  • Radiofrequency energy closes the diseased vein.
  • Outpatient procedure with quick recovery.

Symptoms and Causes

  • Symptoms: Swollen, twisted veins, leg pain, heaviness, cramps, skin discoloration, and itching.
  • Causes: Weak or damaged vein valves, prolonged standing, obesity, pregnancy, heredity, and aging.

Prevention

  • Maintain a healthy weight.
  • Exercise regularly to improve circulation.
  • Avoid long hours of standing or sitting.
  • Wear compression stockings if advised.
  • Elevate legs to reduce pressure on veins.
