The treatment will depend on the severity of disease. If you have multiple
varicose veins, then the cause could be prolonged standing, faulty valves, family history, blood pressure and cholesterol problems, sedentary life style, congenital malformation of veins, and obesity. If any of the causes which can be controlled are detected then taking care of those causes can reduce the progression of varicose veins.
A duplex ultrasound of the vein will need to be carried out.
