If you're experiencing leg pain, swelling, or visible veins, Garden State Pain and Orthopedics in West Orange and Hazlet offers expert, minimally invasive vein treatments to help you look and feel your best.

Visible veins, leg discomfort, and swelling may seem like minor cosmetic concerns—but they can also signal deeper circulation issues that shouldn’t be ignored. At Garden State Pain and Orthopedics, with convenient locations in West Orange and Hazlet, we specialize in diagnosing and treating vein conditions that affect both your health and quality of life.

 

Common Vein Issues We Treat

If you’ve noticed any of the following, you may be dealing with an underlying venous condition:

  • Varicose veins – Enlarged, twisted veins that often bulge from the surface of the skin
  • Spider veins – Small, web-like red or blue veins often found on the legs or face
  • Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) – A condition where blood pools in the legs due to faulty vein valves
  • Leg swelling, aching, or heaviness – Especially after standing or sitting for long periods
  • Skin discoloration or ulcers near the ankles

These conditions are more than cosmetic—they can lead to discomfort, leg fatigue, and even serious complications if untreated.

 

When Is It Time to See a Doctor?

You should consider consulting a vein specialist if:

  • Your veins are bulging, painful, or worsening in appearance
  • You experience aching, burning, or cramping in your legs
  • Symptoms worsen throughout the day or with long periods of standing
  • You’ve noticed skin changes (darkening, thinning, or itching) near your ankles
  • You’ve developed sores or ulcers that are slow to heal
  • You have a family history of vein disease or blood clots

Early treatment can help prevent the progression of venous disease and reduce your risk of complications like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or venous ulcers.
