Dr Ravul Jindal, director, vascular surgery, who is leading the session and conducting the course, said, “The objective of the three-day course/workshop is to spread awareness about the symptoms, causes, and treatment options of varicose veins. Patients suffering from varicose veins have visibly dilated veins in their legs that cause pain, swelling, itching, and bleeding. Some patients also experience skin pigmentation and ulceration in the leg. The medical ailment is diagnosed through clinical examination and duplex ultrasound, and there are various procedures to ablate these veins.”
