Superficial varicose veins can have a significant impact on function and pain in the lower limb. If compression therapy is not provided numerous skin complications can occur such as phlebitis, varicose eczema, varicose ulceration, swelling, and unsightly skin changes.
At Gold Standard we have a Vascular Nurse Specialist based at our Leyland clinic who is able to perform a comprehensive lower limb assessment and advise on management.
