Recently, broken blood vessels appeared on my lower legs on the front and back legs. What should I do?
In this case, appropriate diagnostics (Doppler ultrasound) is recommended. In many cases, minimally invasive treatment is possible, i.e. the procedure of closing dilated blood vessels using a laser technique or the so-called obliteration method, consisting in injecting a drug to close them into the dilated vessel. Such treatment is offered mainly by private centers.
