The increased venous pressure leads to leg swelling, edema, heaviness, leg fatigue, varicose veins, and venous ulceration. This narrowing of the veins typically occurs in the pelvis where the iliac arteries cross the veins. Classically, this has been described as May-Thurner syndrome where the left iliac vein is compressed by the right iliac artery, but the veins can be compressed by the arteries at other locations as well. The arteries are under pressure and are therefore much stiffer. This causes the vein to be compressed between the artery crossing over top and the spine under it.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"fl-accordion--label-1\">How Can Obstructed Veins Be Treated?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" id=\"fl-accordion--icon-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"fl-accordion--panel-1\"><i>Expand<\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Venous obstruction can also be caused by prior DVT (deep vein thrombosis). In the past the only options for treating these venous obstructions required an open surgery to bypass the obstructed vein. Now venous obstructions can be treated with angioplasty and stenting. A catheter is inserted into the vein under ultrasound guidance. The doctor can then insert a tiny ultrasound into the vein to find and diagnose venous obstructions. This Intravenous Ultrasound or IVUS is the best way to detect venous stenosis and it helps guide treatment options. If significant venous narrowing or stenosis is found the doctor can do angioplasty to stretch the vein back open. After the vein is stretched open, a stent is placed. A stent is a braided metal tube which acts as a scaffold to keep the vein open.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"fl-accordion--label-2\">Will My Facial Appearance Be Affected After The Procedure?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" id=\"fl-accordion--icon-2\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"fl-accordion--panel-2\"><i>Expand<\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Common Post-Treatment Facial Appearance:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bruising: May occur around the treated site and can last several days or weeks.<\/li>\n<li>Blistering\/Mild Skin Burn\/Bumps: May occur resulting from the Ohmic Thermolysis treatment.

For myself I noticed results within a week.\nI am riding a bike again for the first time in six years. I have never felt better. The results are incredible.\n\nThank you Dr. Heeringa for giving me back my pain free active lifestyle.\nThe best call I ever made.\nSo please don't hesitate to call Dr. Heeringa at Northern Michigan vein specialist today.
