Q

Managing Varicose Veins Naturally and Medically?Varicose Veins

2 months ago

I have itchy varicose veins and I’m exploring different options for varicose veins management. Could you please guide me on which foods to avoid for varicose veins, and whether natural varicose veins treatment is effective? Also, are there specific shoes for varicose veins or creams that really help, and should I consider varicose veins laser treatment near me?

As a doctor, I understand your concern. Itchiness around varicose veins often signals skin irritation or early venous eczema. In terms of diet, it’s best to avoid salty foods, processed sugar, refined carbs, and trans fats, as they can worsen swelling and inflammation. Additionally natural remedies, like leg elevation, regular walking, a high-fiber diet, and herbal remedies (e.g., horse chestnut) may help with symptom relief, but they won’t reverse the veins.

However, for long-term relief, laser treatment is minimally invasive and highly effective. Get int ouch with your doctor for better understanding.
