Diagnosis of Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are generally diagnosed based on their appearance. The diagnostic process includes a physical examination. During physical examination, the experts will examine the veins and the surrounding areas and check for the symptoms like swelling, heat, or redness to diagnose varicose veins and related complications.

The health care experts may check the pulse near the varicose veins to identify if there is a blood flow problem, along with a few questions regarding the symptoms and risk factors.

The healthcare experts may request some diagnostic tests to determine the diagnosis. You may need to undergo a type of ultrasound scan called a Doppler ultrasound test / Duplex ultrasonography. It helps to assess both the structure and function of vein walls and valves, which is good to know when proceeding with the treatment.

You may also be asked for the complete blood count (CBC), a test done on a sample of blood taken from a vein. It is helpful to diagnose the complication of infection due to varicose veins.
