Frequently Asked Questions

What are signs of venous insufficiency?

Common signs include leg heaviness, aching, swelling, restless legs, varicose veins, spider veins, itching, brown ankle discoloration, skin irritation, or slow-healing sores near the lower leg.

How does M&S check for vein reflux in Queens?

Evaluation usually starts with a history and exam. Duplex ultrasound may be used to see whether vein valves are leaking and which veins are contributing to symptoms.

When is leg swelling urgent?

Sudden one-sided swelling, warmth, redness, severe pain, chest pain, or shortness of breath should be checked urgently because a blood clot or another serious problem may be possible.
