Clinics for the treatment of vascular conditions

These conditions are treated by a phlebologist:

• varicose veins;
• phlebothrombosis;
• chronic venous insufficiency;
• thrombophlebitis;
• post-thrombotic disorders;
• trophic ulcers and other complications of vein diseases.

An angiosurgeon (vascular surgeon) is referred to when there are problems with the arteries, veins and lymphatic vessels, for conditions such as:

• atherosclerosis;
• vascular trauma;
• myocardial infarction;
• varicose veins;
• microangiopathy;
• ischemic heart disease;
• thrombophlebitis;
• cerebral hemorrhage;
• aortic aneurysms;
• thrombosis;
• embolism;
• varicocele;
• lymphostasis;
• congenital vascular anomalies.

The diseases that vascular surgeons treat show a variety of symptoms. See your doctor if you are concerned:

• headache for no apparent reason;
• pain in the lower back, chest, or abdomen;
• long-lasting wounds that don’t heal;
• cold sensation in the extremities;
• pulsation of blood vessels in the neck and abdomen;
• tinnitus;
• dizziness, fainting;
• numbness and sensory disturbances in the extremities;
• reddening of the skin on the legs.

Of course, these symptoms do not always indicate that the problem is related to blood vessels. That is why you need the assistance of a doctor. He or she will find out the cause of such manifestations. If the problem is in the blood vessels, the angiosurgeon will determine the treatment tactics, or refer to the appropriate specialist, if he or she realizes that the problem is not in his or her competence.
