Board-certified and aesthetic-laser-certified family physician Dr. Manu B. Aggarwal, MHSA, MD, specializes in treating vein disease. At the Vein Care Center, Dr. Aggarwal uses cutting-edge diagnostic techniques and treatments to provide patients in and around Lima and Celina, OH, and the surrounding areas of Auglaize County with outstanding care for their venous problems.
First, it’s important to understand what veins do: Simply put, your veins are responsible for transporting deoxygenated blood back to your heart. In order for veins to function properly, all the valves must close completely to prevent a backflow of blood. When these valves weaken and fail to close all the way, your blood flows more slowly, causing it to pool and creating pressure within the vein.
Problem veins, including varicose and spider veins, are unsightly and can be embarrassing for patients. But more importantly, they can pose a serious health risk. At the Vein Care Center, we offer a wide variety of state-of-the-art vein treatments to correct the appearance and functionality of your veins.
Patients with vein disease experience a weakening and sometimes complete failure of the tiny valves that normally prevent a backflow of blood. The failure of these valves causes blood to collect in the lower extremities. Eventually, due to a buildup of pressure, veins in these patients begin to bulge and twist, leading to the development of varicose veins.
Spider veins, another common condition, are blue, purple or red veins that are smaller than varicose veins. They can appear anywhere on the body, including the face. Although they usually don’t present any physical discomfort, they can indicate underlying vein disease.
Vein disorders affect nearly 80 million people in the U.S. alone. It’s important to have vein disease properly diagnosed and treated in its early stages to prevent potential serious medical complications.
Having a family history of vein disorders is the most common factor in whether or not you will be affected, but there are other causes of vein disease, including:
