Hi Doctor and team,

My wife is experiencing varicose veins that extend from her leg to her thigh, as well as reaching her pelvic area. We suspect that the veins in the pelvic area might be causing pelvic congestion, leading to back and belly pain.

Just wondering, is it a day or overnight if we want to get rid of the varicose vein? and how much it will cost, we are overseas (INA), Once we have this information, we will proceed with organizing everything and contact for an appointment.

Hi,

You will need to consult a vascular surgeon for further management.

If your wife is pregnant, she can start on some oral medication as well as put on some compression stockings.

Thank you.
