How to treat itchy varicose veins legs

If varicose veins present with itchy legs, stasis phlebitis due to impaired venous blood return is generally to be considered. This results in calf dermatitis, which leads to itchy symptoms. This condition is a more serious manifestation of varicose veins. If the problem is to be solved at the root, surgical treatment is required, either minimally invasive saphenous vein intervention or open saphenous vein ligation with varicose vein stripping. If you are not willing to undergo surgery, you can try conservative treatment. Topical anti-itch medications, such as glycolic lotion, ayurvedic lotion, Bactrim, or intravenous infusion of sodium thiosulfate, can be used to moisturize the skin and stop itching. In addition, the lower extremities wear with elastic stockings or elastic bandage compression, to promote the lower extremity venous reflux, is also able to reduce the itching symptoms.
