From Swelling to Fatigue: Understanding the Symptoms of Vein Disease

From Swelling to Fatigue: Understanding the Symptoms of Vein Disease

Vein disease is more common than many people realize and can manifest in subtle ways, such as swelling and fatigue. Left untreated, it can impact your vascular health and overall quality of life. At West Florida Vascular and Vein, with clinics in Safety Harbor and Tampa, Florida, we specialize in diagnosing and treating vein conditions to keep you moving comfortably.

Recognizing Vein Disease Symptoms
The early signs of vein disease often go unnoticed. Common symptoms include swelling in the legs or ankles, feelings of heaviness or fatigue, and visible varicose or spider veins. You may also experience aching, cramping, or tingling sensations in your legs. Some people report skin changes, like discoloration or ulcerations, pointing to more advanced vein disease.

These symptoms arise from poor blood flow, often caused by conditions like chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). If ignored, they can lead to more severe health problems, including blood clots and infections.

The Importance of Early Diagnosis
Early diagnosis is critical. Ignoring vein disease symptoms like leg swelling or persistent fatigue can worsen the condition, requiring more invasive treatments later. By catching it early, you can take less disruptive steps to restore your vascular health.

Tampa and Safety Harbor Vein Treatment Options
At West Florida Vascular and Vein, we offer a range of treatments tailored to your needs. With modern technology, most procedures are minimally invasive and completed in-office. Options like sclerotherapy, endovenous laser therapy (EVLT), Venefit,  and ultrasound-guided procedures target vein issues at their source, delivering relief with minimal downtime.

Beyond treatments, we focus on long-term vascular health. Our team will work with you to manage risk factors, including lifestyle adjustments, to prevent recurrence.
