Restless Leg Syndrome-RLS
People who constantly feel the urge to move their legs may be suffering from restless leg syndrome. RLS can be quite uncomfortable, especially when sitting or lying down, so patients with RLS often have trouble sleeping and traveling. Vein disease is one of the causes of RLS, because damaged vein valves make legs feel achy, cramped, and tired. If diagnosed during consultation and vein mapping, relief of RLS symptoms will be addressed in your Care Life Clinic treatment plan.
Spider Veins-Underlying Cause
The most common sign of spider veins is discolored veins that appear red, blue, or purple. However, spider veins can develop without any visible signs. Common signs and symptoms of spider veins include:
- Swelling
- Leg restlessness (RLS)
- Tingling or numb sensations
- The feeling of burning or itching
- Tender or red around veins
What Treatment Is Available?
Vein disease is an often overlooked cause of RLS. Doctors typically test RLS patients for venous insufficiency before prescribing medications or physical therapy. By managing this underlying condition, vein treatment can relieve the discomfort and inconvenience of RLS.
