Relief from Pain, Swelling, and Discoloration
Carla M. came to United Vein & Vascular Centers – Duluth seeking relief from painful symptoms affecting her right foot and leg. She described severe pain along with swelling, purple discoloration, and numbness that were making daily activities increasingly difficult and uncomfortable.
After her evaluation, Carla moved forward with treatment that included cyanoacrylate closure (CAC) and Varithena®, minimally invasive vein procedures designed to improve circulation and reduce vein-related symptoms.
Since receiving care, Carla has experienced meaningful improvements in both comfort and circulation. She shared that her pain has resolved, the swelling has significantly decreased, and her foot has returned to a more normal color.
These changes have had a major impact on her daily life. Carla noted that she is now able to sit and stand for longer periods of time and has regained sensation in her foot, allowing her to move through daily activities with greater comfort and confidence.
Carla also spoke very highly of her experience with the care team, describing everyone as attentive, caring, and kind throughout the process. She expressed deep gratitude for the compassionate treatment she received during her visits.
For others who may be unsure about seeking treatment, Carla shared that she would “100% recommend” United Vein & Vascular Centers.
