Studies have shown that taking horse chestnut seed extract orally can reduce the symptoms of vein problems like venous insufficiency after 2-16 weeks. Ask your doctor if it is safe to take this supplement. Follow the prescribed dose and contact your doctor if you experience any side effects, such as gastrointestinal distress or dizziness. Buy horse chestnut seed extract at pharmacies, health stores, or online. Vasodilator medications can increase blood flow through the vessels, improving your circulation. Ask your doctor if you can take one of these medicines as part of a vein repair treatment plan. A combination of compression therapy and medicine often proves effective.  Nitroglycerin and alprostadil are popular prescription vasodilators. Always take these medications exactly as they are prescribed. Sclerotherapy involves inserting a small needle into varicose veins to inject them with substances like glycerin or hypertonic saline. This will collapse the varicose veins, reducing their physical appearance as well as the discomfort caused by them. Talk to your doctor about this treatment to see if it is right for you.  Results can usually be observed 3-6 weeks after the treatment.  Your doctor will usually book a follow-up appointment about a month after the sclerotherapy procedure to see if another session is needed. In some cases, varicose veins may return after this treatment. Endovenous thermal ablation is a procedure that uses a laser or high-frequency radio waves to target damaged veins. The heat emitted shuts off the vein from the rest of the circulatory system without collapsing it. Talk to your doctor about this procedure if you want a long-term treatment option with minimal pain or healing time. This treatment leaves the closed off veins in place, resulting in very little bruising or bleeding. Most patients with vein problems do not need surgery to repair them, but the option still exists. If your veins are severely damaged, ask your doctor if surgery may be right for you. Your doctor might suggest:  Ligation and stripping, where a vascular surgeon will cuts and ties off  your problem veins, or remove them. Micro-incision phlebectomy, where a surgeon will make small incisions or punctures in your veins and remove the problem ones with a phlebectomy hook. Vein bypass, where a piece of healthy vein is transplanted to reroute blood flow around a damaged vein.
