Healthy Living: Fixing Varicose Veins

Millions of Americans suffer from varicose veins, twisted or enlarged veins that you can see just under the surface of the skin.

Childbirth and weight gain are just two of the causes. 

And as we learn in Healthy Living, doctors now have a new, minimally invasive treatment available that’s bringing fast relief.

The procedure takes about 30 minutes, and patients leave the office with just a band aid covering the tiny pinhole in their knee.

Dr. Tanbe says the varicose vein symptoms like burning and aching start to ease within a day or two.

VenaSeal is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and some private insurance companies.
