injected into varicose veins or tiny spider
veins. They collapse and disappear within a
few weeks.
Recovery: Back at work next day; no
prolonged sitting or standing, or squatting,
heavy lifting and jogging, for two weeks.
Comment: Treatments may require weeks or
months. Varicose veins pencil size or larger
may call for vascular surgery. Lasers are
being used experimentally.
Risks: Blood clots, inflammation, allergic
reaction, scarring, blotches, discoloration.
Permanence: Treated veins are gone; new ones
may surface.
