Vein Disease & Varicose Vein Treatments in Nashville That Actually Work
Do your legs feel heavy, tired, or swollen at the end of the day? You may be suffering from chronic vein disease—a condition that affects 1 in 3 adults. Left untreated, it can lead to painful varicose veins, skin changes, and even ulcers.
At Siragusa Vein & Laser, we help patients across Nashville and Hermitage restore comfort and confidence with effective, insurance-covered vein treatments.
What Is Vein Disease?
Vein disease, or chronic venous insufficiency, occurs when the veins in your legs struggle to return blood back to your heart. Over time, blood pools in the lower limbs, leading to:
- Bulging or twisted veins (varicose veins)
- Throbbing leg pain or cramping
- Ankle swelling
- Skin discoloration or thickening
- Heaviness or burning in the legs

Vein Disease is classified into 5 Steps
SPIDER VEINS
Spider veins affect 50% of Americans and are one of the most common reasons people feel insecure about their legs. People often avoid wearing shorts or bathing suits to keep these unsightly veins hidden. Although they are commonly perceived as only a cosmetic issue, they can often be a symptom of the more serious problem of venous insufficiency, especially if you have symptoms such as heaviness, aching and/or fatigue in the legs.
Varicose Veins
Varicose veins are visible veins in the leg that bulge, and often protrude through the skin and affect approximately 40% of the U.S population. These types of veins form as a result of venous insufficiency: blood that pools in the vein because of a faulty valve and causes the protrusion. Patients dealing with varicose veins often limit their social activity and experience a significant change to their quality of life due to the pain and embarrassment associated with these veins. Left untreated, they can lead to worsening of symptoms and appearance.
Leg Swelling
One of the most common complaints we hear from our patients is “My legs feel swollen, tired, and heavy, especially at the end of the day”. Our leg veins are responsible for draining blood out of our legs and returning it to the heart. When the valves inside our veins don’t work properly, blood tends to build up and pool in the leg, which over the course of the day leads to an increase in swelling. Swelling in the feet and legs often leads to the patient’s legs feeling tight and heavy. This can limit their mobility, ability to take part in daily activity and often can affect sleep schedules.
Skin Darkening & Thickening
Think of the superficial veins in your leg as a drainage system for your skin. Similar to when the drain for your sink becomes clogged, causing a problem with your sink, when you develop reflux (backwards flow) down your veins, you have a problem adequately circulating old blood out of your skin. As the blood pools over time, it can leak out of the damaged veins, into the skin. This results in dark, thickened patches of skin that often are very itchy.
Skin Ulcer
One of the most dreaded complications of vein disease is developing an open wound on the leg called a venous ulcer. Venous Ulcers usually occur on the inner aspect of the leg just above the ankle. They often develop in discolored and abnormal patches of skin and are due to lack of oxygen and nutrients. These ulcers can take years to heal, but unless the underlying circulation problem is fixed, the wounds will usually come back.
