Relief From Leg Pressure and Pain
For years, this patient lived with increasing leg pressure, heaviness, and visible varicose veins. What began as a minor annoyance slowly became a daily burden that made standing and walking uncomfortable. A previous clinic dismissed his concerns and offered only compression socks, leaving the deeper cause of his symptoms unaddressed.
Everything changed when Roger walked into United Vein & Vascular Centers after noticing the clinic during another appointment. The team listened, acted quickly, and performed an ultrasound that revealed what had been missed elsewhere: significant deeper vein issues contributing to his discomfort. Under the care of Dr. Harvey, he began a personalized treatment plan that included laser therapy for larger veins and injections for smaller, surface-level varicose veins. Each visit was professional, friendly, and easy.
Within weeks, he felt a major difference. His legs were lighter, walking became easier, and discomfort faded. Just days after completing his final treatment, he was able to take a 2.5-mile hike, something he hadn’t done comfortably in years.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I feel pressure in my leg veins?
Pressure in your leg veins may be caused by poor blood circulation due to weakened or damaged valves in your veins. This can lead to blood pooling in the legs, resulting in a feeling of pressure or tightness.
Why do I feel heaviness in my legs?
Heaviness in your legs can be a sign of poor circulation or vein issues, such as chronic venous insufficiency. When veins in your legs aren’t functioning properly, blood can collect, causing your legs to feel heavy, tired, or swollen.
What are the symptoms of vein problems in the legs?
Common symptoms of vein problems include visible varicose veins, swelling, heaviness, cramping, aching, or a feeling of pressure in the legs. You may also notice skin changes or ulcers in severe cases.
