In Flatbush, Brooklyn
.
Every factor in your health is important for your overall wellness, and one that is often overlooked is vascular health. Therefore, it is essential to realize that vein or artery conditions can seriously impact your quality of life. When your arteries and veins don’t work correctly, swelling or weakness appears. In addition, many patients don’t treat their pain until it develops complications, resulting in them having to use emergency services. However, all those factors can be stopped and treated with vascular surgery.
At Be Well Health Care Center, we offer vascular surgery, a service designed to provide you with an advanced and safe solution for vascular diseases. Recover your wellness and prevent long-term complications by calling our offices.
What is Vascular Surgery?
Vascular surgery is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases that may affect blood vessels (arteries, veins, and the lymphatic system). The main objective of this procedure is to restore the blood flow and reduce the pain while preventing serious complications such as Brain Stroke (CVA), blood clots, and even losing a limb.
A healthy vascular system means more oxygen and nutrients for your organs, muscles, and tissues. If there exists any blockage or damage in your veins or arteries, the risk increases, and you may experience symptoms such as chronic pain, ulcers, tingling, and weakness, among others. Therefore, an early diagnosis is a key step if you are experiencing some of these symptoms.
Conditions Treated With Vascular Surgery
Vascular surgery can relieve a wide range of conditions, including:
Varicose and Spider Veins
Many patients think these conditions are aesthetic issues, but they can cause pain, weakness, or cramps while sleeping.
Chronic Venous Insufficiency
Occurs when veins don’t correctly return the blood to the heart, leading to swelling and ulcers.
Deep Vein Thrombosis
A clot can block the blood flow in the deepest veins in the legs, and left untreated, it can result in death.
Peripheral Arterial Disease
This condition develops when the arteries of your legs become obstructed, leading to pain when walking.
Aneurysm
Dangerous dilations in the arteries can put your life at risk when they rupture.
Blood Flow Issues in Feet and Limbs
Usual in people with diabetes or hypertension.
Available Treatments in Flatbush, Brooklyn
At Be Well Health Care Center, we utilize advanced and minimally invasive techniques that allow you to have a faster and safer recovery. Some of our treatments include:
Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure and consists of the injection of a sclerosant solution into the affected blood vessels, which causes an adverse effect and results in the body reabsorbing the vein. This treatment is ideal for aesthetic or mild cases.
Radiofrequency or Laser Ablation
These treatments use heat to destroy your damaged tissue, in this case, the blood vessels. In addition, without open surgery, we can seal the vein, causing the blood to change its route to the healthier veins.
Arterial Bypass Surgery
It is indicated when the artery is seriously obstructed and is a surgical procedure used to create a new route for the blood flow. However, this option has several recovery processes, but the results last for years, turning it into a long-term solution.
Aneurysm Reparation
Endovascular procedures or open surgery, depending on the size and location of the aneurysm. It can prevent complications by treating the damaged blood vessels near the brain. The endovascular repair is a minimally invasive but open surgery can help when the size makes the treatment more dangerous.
Preventing Care and Therapy
Through image studies and regular control, you can avoid the development of any blood vessel condition. With professional support in every decision and habit, you can reduce future risk.
