🔥 Varicose veins aren’t just a cosmetic issue — and most people don’t realize it.
In this video, Dr. Dave Esposito, board certified vascular surgeon at Milford Vascular Institute, breaks down why varicose veins often signal something much more serious happening beneath the surface.
Varicose veins can be a sign of venous insufficiency, a condition where weakened valves in the veins allow blood to flow backward and pool in the legs. Left untreated, this can lead to:
• Pain, swelling, and heaviness
• Itching and tenderness
• Phlebitis or blood clots
• Bleeding from enlarged veins
• Worsening vein disease over time
Many people ignore these symptoms — especially men — thinking they’re “just cosmetic.” But these veins can indicate a real medical problem that deserves attention.
At Milford Vascular Institute, we perform dedicated vascular ultrasounds to find the root cause, and we offer minimally invasive, in-office treatments that use lasers, microwave energy, injections, and other advanced methods to fix the issue at its source with little downtime.
✨ If you have varicose veins, the most important step is simply getting evaluated.
Whether your ultrasound shows a problem or not, you deserve answers — and expert care.
