Microphlebectomies of Varicose Veins
What are varicose veins?
Varicose Veins are enlarged veins with faulty valves that allow the blood to flow in the wrong direction. Symptoms may become more noticeable if you have been sitting or standing for a long period of time.
Symptoms include:
- Veins that are blue or dark purple
- Skin discoloration
- Pain
- Throbbing
- A heavy sensation
How can varicose veins be treated?
Varicose veins can be treated with a microphlebectomy.
Illness Treatment
If you are experiencing vein swelling, pain, or discoloring, come in for a free vein screening.

Vein Treatments
Our certified doctors perform minimally-invasive procedures performed in a state-of-the-art lab, providing effective results in a comfortable setting.
Vein Ablation for Venous Reflux
How does the procedure work?
The procedure begins by injecting an anesthetic around the vein to make the patient more comfortable. Then, a thin catheter is insterted into the vein and a laser is used to cauterize and close the varicose vein. After the diseased vein has been closed, other healthy veins will take over to carry blood, re-establishing normal and health bloodflow back to the heart.
Illness Treatment
Treatment Options:
- Sclerotherapy
- Microsclerosis using thermocoagulation

Vein Coiling to Treat Varicocele
What is Varicocele?
A varicocele is an enlarged vein usually on the left side in your scrotum. These veins are also called the pampiniform plexus. 10 to 15% of men have varicocele. It is similar to a varicose vein in your leg.
Varicocele often produces no signs or symptoms, however, possible signs and symptoms may include:
- Pain
Discomfort or a dull pain may be felt when standing or later in the day. Lying down relieves the pain. - A mass in the scrotum
If a varicocele is large enough, a mass may be visible above the testicle. A smaller varicocele may be too small to see, but still noticeable by touch. - Differently sized testicles
The affected testicle may grow slower or shrink and be noticeably smaller than the other testicle. - Infertility
A varicocele may lead to difficulty fathering a child, but this is not always the case.
When should I see a doctor?
If you experience continuous pain, swelling or a mass in the scrotum, make an appointment at Blue Rock Medical to get a timely and accurate diagnosis.

Pelvic Congestion Syndrome
Pelvic Congestion Syndrome is a condition caused by dilated veins in the pelvis, often in women who have had multiple children.
How is pelvic congestion syndrome treated?
Ovarian/Gonadal vein embolization is a minimally invasive treatment for pelvic congestion syndrome. The goal is to close off faulty veins so they can no longer enlarge with blood, thus relieving pain and symptoms of pelvic congestion syndrome.
