Vein Conditions

Dedicated Vein Specialists in Lone Tree & Colorado Springs

A vein condition refers to abnormalities or diseases that affect the blood vessels. Unlike heart disease or artery disease, vein conditions are usually very noticeable. They often manifest symptoms that are painful and difficult to ignore.

When Should I See a Vein Specialist?

It can sometimes be difficult to know when it is time to see a vein specialist. Venous conditions, like varicose veins and spider veins aren’t always debilitating and symptoms don’t always present themselves. It is common with these disorders that people try to ignore the problem rather than seeking treatment. If you are experiencing varicose or spider veins, it’s beneficial to seek medical care as soon as possible. Even minor symptoms can indicate a more serious health condition.

These symptoms usually prompt doctors to order a venous ultrasound in order to diagnose a vein condition such as varicose veins or spider veins.

What Happens Once I’m Diagnosed with a Vein Disease?

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with a venous disease you should seek appropriate treatment as soon as possible. While these conditions start as painful irritations, they can progress into more serious problems when left untreated. For instance, vein conditions can make it difficult for blood to pump up through the legs and back to the heart. When this happens, blood can pool in the veins and result in deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism.

Thankfully, there are many proven treatment options for vein conditions, such as sclerotherapy and laser treatments. At Albert Vein Institute, we provide comprehensive treatment for vein conditions using the latest, state-of-the-art techniques in Lone Tree and Colorado Springs.
