What are Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins, usually in the legs. They form when the one-way valves inside a vein fail, letting blood flow backwards and pool, so the vein stretches and enlarges.

Why They Form

Veins carry blood back to the heart through one-way valves. When those valves weaken, pressure in the vein rises, the wall stretches and more valves fail.

Who Gets Them

Nearly a quarter of adults worldwide have varicose veins. Women are affected more often, frequently after pregnancy, and the risk rises with age, weight and long hours on your feet.

Symptoms and Impact

Heaviness, aching, ankle swelling and night cramps are common, and they usually get worse after long periods of standing.

Treatment in Jaipur

In Jaipur, interventional radiologists and vascular surgeons treat varicose veins. Dr. Nikhil Bansal, an interventional radiologist, offers all four non-surgical methods.

Image-Guided Varicose Veins Treatment in Jaipur

Interventional radiology is a specialty built around image-guided treatment. Every varicose vein procedure Dr. Bansal performs is done under ultrasound through a needle puncture, without cuts or stitches. Traditional vein stripping under general anaesthesia is rarely needed today.

  • Ultrasound-guided from start to finish
  • No cuts or stitches, only a needle puncture
  • Local anaesthetic, or none for sclerotherapy
  • You walk immediately and go home the same day
  • Most patients return to desk work within 1–3 days
  • Compression stocking during the day for 1–2 weeks
  • Follow-up ultrasound to confirm the vein has stayed closed

Are Varicose Veins Serious?

Varicose veins are usually not life-threatening, but they are progressive. Left untreated they cause burning, throbbing pain, swelling and heaviness in the legs, and can lead to deep vein thrombosis, bleeding from a ruptured vein and non-healing venous ulcers near the ankle.

In Dr. Bansal’s experience in Jaipur, many patients arrive late, after bleeding or an ulcer has developed, because the visible cluster of veins “did not bother them”. Many also believe there is no lasting treatment and that the veins always come back. Neither is true: after EVLT or radiofrequency ablation, the treated vein stays closed in around 90% of cases or more at long-term follow-up, although new varicose veins can still form in other veins over the years.

Does Varicose Vein Treatment Last?

After EVLT or radiofrequency ablation, the treated vein stays closed in around 90% of cases or more at long-term follow-up. MOCA has somewhat lower closure rates in clinical trials, which is one reason the method is chosen vein by vein from the Doppler map.

Closing the diseased vein cannot stop new varicose veins forming in other veins over the years. Keeping a healthy weight, staying active and following the post-treatment advice lowers that risk.

Overview - Varicose veins

How Common Are Varicose Veins in India?

Varicose veins affect nearly a quarter of adults worldwide. In India more than 10 million new cases are reported each year, and roughly a third of the adult population has some degree of the condition. Women are affected more often, frequently after pregnancy.

Obesity, jobs with long hours of standing or sitting, and age all raise the risk, as normal wear on the vein valves adds up over time.

What Are the Symptoms of Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are enlarged, swollen, and twisting veins, often appearing blue or dark purple. They occur when faulty valves in the veins allow blood to flow in the wrong direction or to pool. Symptoms of varicose veins include:

Visible Veins: The most obvious symptom is the appearance of dark purple or blue veins that are twisted and bulging, often resembling cords on the legs.
Aching and Heaviness: Legs may feel heavy or achy, particularly after standing or sitting for long periods. This discomfort can be more pronounced later in the day.
Swelling: There can be swelling in the lower legs and ankles, especially after long periods of standing.
Pain and Discomfort: Some individuals experience throbbing, burning, muscle cramping, and swelling in the lower legs.
Itching: The skin around varicose veins may itch or become irritated. This can sometimes lead to more serious skin conditions if left untreated.
Skin Discoloration and Ulcers: In severe cases, varicose veins can cause changes in skin color around the affected area, and ulcers may form, especially near the ankles.
Restless Legs: Some people feel a strong urge to move the legs, particularly at night.
Night Cramps: Some individuals may experience painful leg cramps during the night due to varicose veins.

What Causes Varicose Veins?

Veins carry blood back to the heart through one-way valves. When these valves are damaged or weakened, blood pools in the vein instead of flowing towards the heart, pressure inside the vein rises, the vein wall stretches and becomes fragile, and more valves fail.

Extended sitting or standing raises the pressure in the leg veins and speeds up this process.

Several factors can contribute to the development of varicose veins, including:
  • Prolonged standing
  • Age, particularly over 50
  • Pregnancy and menopause in women
  • Family history of varicose veins
  • Obesity and excess weight
  • Sedentary lifestyle
  • Hormonal changes and birth-control use

Which Varicose Vein Treatments Does Dr. Nikhil Bansal Offer?

Dr. Nikhil Bansal treats varicose veins with four non-surgical, ultrasound-guided methods: EVLT (endovenous laser), radiofrequency ablation (RFA), MOCA and foam sclerotherapy. The method is chosen from the Doppler map made at your first visit.

After the scan, the clinic gives you a single all-inclusive quote for the procedure. RGHS, CGHS and ESIC patients and railway employees are treated cashless; private health insurance usually covers EVLT and RFA, subject to your policy’s terms and waiting period.

Available Varicose Veins
Treatment What it does Anaesthesia Procedure time Back to work Best suited to
EVLT (endovenous laser) A laser fibre inside the vein seals it shut with heat Local 20–40 min per leg 1–3 days Reflux in the great or small saphenous vein
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) A catheter closes the vein with radiofrequency heat Local 30–45 min per leg 1–3 days As EVLT; typically less bruising afterwards
MOCA (mechanochemical ablation) A rotating wire plus sclerosant closes the vein without heat Minimal local 30–45 min Same day Veins close to nerves, below-knee segments
Foam sclerotherapy Foam injected into small veins makes them collapse None 20–30 min Same day Tributaries, residual and spider veins
Surgery (vein stripping) The vein is removed through incisions General or spinal 1–2 hours 1–2 weeks Rarely needed with modern endovenous treatment

All endovenous treatments are day procedures: you walk immediately afterwards, wear a compression stocking during the day for 1–2 weeks, and come back for a follow-up ultrasound that confirms the vein has stayed closed.

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions About Varicose Veins Treatment

    Who is the best varicose veins doctor in Jaipur?

    In Jaipur, varicose veins are treated by interventional radiologists and vascular surgeons. At Endovascular Expert Clinic the treating specialist is Dr. Nikhil Bansal, MD, PGDHHM, FVIR, FIPM, Consultant Interventional Radiologist at Mahatma Gandhi Hospital, Jaipur, with 15 years of experience and more than 10,000 patients treated. He performs EVLT, radiofrequency ablation, MOCA and sclerotherapy, and varicose veins are the most common condition he treats.

    Is Dr. Nikhil Bansal a vascular surgeon or an interventional radiologist?

    Dr. Nikhil Bansal is an interventional radiologist. Interventional radiology is the specialty of image-guided, non-surgical procedures, which include the varicose vein treatments EVLT, radiofrequency ablation, MOCA and sclerotherapy. Patients often search for a “vascular surgeon”; vascular surgeons treat varicose veins too, and interventional radiologists are among the specialists who perform these non-surgical procedures.

    Which varicose vein treatment will I get: laser, RFA, MOCA or sclerotherapy?

    The choice follows the Doppler ultrasound map made at your first visit. Reflux in the main superficial veins is usually treated with EVLT or radiofrequency ablation; veins running close to nerves or below the knee are often better suited to MOCA; small tributaries and spider veins are treated with foam sclerotherapy. Dr. Nikhil Bansal performs all four.

    Is varicose vein treatment covered by RGHS, CGHS, ESIC or insurance at Endovascular Expert Clinic, Jaipur?

    Yes. Varicose vein treatment at Endovascular Expert Clinic is available cashless under RGHS, CGHS, ESIC and for railway employees. Most private health insurers cover EVLT and radiofrequency ablation, subject to your policy’s terms and waiting period.

    क्या आप वेरिकोस वेन्स का इलाज RGHS या CGHS के अंतर्गत ढूंढ रहे हैं? Endovascular Expert क्लिनिक में RGHS, CGHS, ESIC और रेलवे कर्मचारियों के लिए वेरिकोस वेन्स का इलाज कैशलेस सुविधा के तहत उपलब्ध है।

    What does varicose vein treatment cost in Jaipur?

    The cost depends on the method (EVLT, RFA, MOCA or sclerotherapy), the number of veins treated and whether one or both legs are involved. After the Doppler map, Endovascular Expert Clinic quotes a single all-inclusive price for the procedure; RGHS, CGHS and ESIC patients are treated cashless.

    How long is recovery after EVLT or RFA?

    You walk immediately after the procedure and go home the same day. Most patients return to desk work within 1–3 days. Compression stockings are worn during the day for 1–2 weeks, and a follow-up ultrasound confirms the vein has stayed closed.

    Where is Endovascular Expert Clinic and how do I book Dr. Nikhil Bansal?

    G-9, Unique Shardool, 14, Chetak Marg, Jawahar Lal Nehru Marg, near JK Lon Hospital, Jaipur, Rajasthan 302004. Call +91-9782415566. Open Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM; Sunday closed.

    What should I expect during my first visit for varicose vein treatment?

    During your first visit, Dr. Nikhil Bansal reviews your medical history, examines your legs and performs a Doppler ultrasound to map which veins are refluxing. A personalised treatment plan is then discussed based on that map.

    Can varicose veins come back after treatment?

    After EVLT or radiofrequency ablation, the treated vein stays closed in around 90% of cases or more at long-term follow-up; MOCA has somewhat lower closure rates in clinical trials. New varicose veins can still develop in other veins over time. Keeping a healthy weight, staying active and following the post-treatment advice lowers that risk.

    Are varicose veins painful, and what are the early symptoms?

    Early symptoms include a heavy or tired feeling in the legs, mild ankle swelling, night cramps and itching around the veins. Later, aching, throbbing and burning are common, and in severe cases skin discolouration or ulcers form near the ankles.

    Can wearing compression stockings cure varicose veins?

    Compression stockings do not cure varicose veins. They relieve symptoms such as pain and swelling by improving blood flow in the legs, and they slow the veins from getting worse.

    Are varicose and spider veins different?

    Yes. Varicose veins are larger, swollen veins that are often raised above the skin’s surface and may be twisted or bulging. Spider veins are smaller red, purple or blue veins close to the skin’s surface that resemble a spider web or tree branches.

    Why do women get varicose veins during pregnancy?

    During pregnancy, increased blood volume and hormonal changes cause veins to enlarge, and the growing uterus puts pressure on the veins of the legs, which can lead to varicose veins.

    Do varicose veins occur only in the legs?

    They are most common in the legs but can develop in the pelvis, rectum and oesophagus. In men, varicose veins in the scrotum are called varicoceles, which Dr. Bansal treats separately by varicocele embolization.
