Standing Longer Without the Ache
This patient began noticing several uncomfortable symptoms in her legs before seeking treatment. Her legs often felt heavy, and she experienced restless legs along with aching discomfort. In some areas, the veins had started to protrude, making her legs not only feel uncomfortable but also look different than before.
Looking for answers, Michelle D. came to United Vein & Vascular Centers – Orland Park, where she underwent vein ablation procedures to treat the underlying vein issues in her legs. The minimally invasive treatments were designed to close diseased veins and help restore healthier circulation.
Since completing treatment, Michelle says the symptoms that once bothered her have completely disappeared. The restless legs and aching she experienced before are gone, and her legs no longer hurt the way they used to.
These improvements have made everyday activities easier. Michelle says she can now stand for longer periods of time without pain, something that had been difficult before treatment. The relief has allowed her to move through her daily routine more comfortably.
Michelle also had a very positive experience with the care team. She describes the doctor and staff as wonderful and says they made the procedures feel comfortable and easy. Although she was nervous at first because she didn’t know what to expect, she says the overall experience and the results were both excellent. For anyone who may be undecided about coming to UVVC, Michelle’s advice is simple: just do it.
