Enjoy a Private Appointment With Our Vascular Surgeon and Staff
Sitting in a crowded waiting room is not recommended during the current pandemic. But the symptoms of vein disease need treatment because they range from uncomfortable to painful. They typically affect the legs and may include:
- Swelling
- Burning
- Itching
- Throbbing
- Cramping
If left untreated, vein disorders such as spider or varicose veins can lead to more serious ulcers. Ulcers appear as painful sores, usually around your legs and ankles. They often take a long time to heal, and may pose a risk of infection.
If you need treatment for vein disease in Portland, Oregon, there’s no need to suffer. The Inovia Vein Center offers one-on-one appointments that won’t leave you waiting in a crowded room full of patients. Don’t put yourself and your loved ones at risk by seeking treatment at a medical center or local emergency room. Make a private appointment with our vascular surgeon instead. We’ll get you in and out without putting you in contact with others who are experiencing the symptoms associated with COVID-19 such as dry cough and labored breathing.
Resist the Urge to Delay Treatment for Vein Disease
Waiting to treat the serious symptoms of vein disease puts you at greater medical risk. Chronic venous insufficiency is more than just a cosmetic problem. It also puts you at greater risk of life-threatening conditions such as deep vein thrombosis. Patients who suffer from chronic venous insufficiency have a vascular problem that prevents blood from returning from the legs to the heart. Instead, the blood pools inside the veins of the legs, causing swelling and discoloration. In severe cases, blood clots can form, causing a life-threatening condition known as DVT.
