Finding Lasting Relief From Leg Cramping and Swelling
For Elinor K., vein symptoms had slowly become part of everyday life. Swelling around her ankles, leg discomfort, and noticeable skin discoloration were starting to interfere with her comfort and routine. When her primary care doctor noticed the swelling and recommended a vein evaluation, she decided it was time to seek care.
Elinor began treatment with Dr. Sebai at United Vein & Vascular Centers in Downers Grove, starting with one procedure on each leg. These treatments were followed by sclerotherapy to further address problem veins. Over time, she noticed a significant improvement in the symptoms that brought her in, leg cramping and swelling decreased, and the discoloration around her ankles began to fade.
Today, her legs are no longer something she thinks about. The discomfort she once felt is gone, and she’s able to comfortably walk for about half an hour each day without her legs limiting her activity. What once felt like a daily concern is now simply a non-issue.
She describes her experience with Dr. Sabai and the care team as excellent. The staff was kind, compassionate, patient, and attentive throughout her treatment journey, making her feel supported at every visit. Looking back, Elinor says she wouldn’t hesitate to recommend vein treatment, or Dr. Sabai and his team, to anyone who may be unsure.
