Abstract:

Introduction and Background: Common symptoms of varicose veins, which affect mostly the lower extremities, include pain, swelling, and a heavy feeling in the affected area. The purpose of this research is to better understand and advise clinical care of varicose veins by determining the frequency of asymptomatic deep vein thrombosis and by analysing risk variables related to this condition.
Material and Methods: There were 100 people in the study as a whole. The study took place from August 2016 to July 2017 at the Department of General Surgery, Mahavir Institute of Medical Sciences, located in Vikarabad, Ranga Reddy, Telangana, India. The building was in a primary care facility.
Results: The investigation revealed a notable occurrence of asymptomatic DVT among individuals with varicose veins. This observation highlights the hidden thrombotic potential associated with venous insufficiency, even when symptoms are not apparent. Varicose veins are frequently overlooked as a harmless issue; nonetheless, the link to asymptomatic DVT underscores the necessity for a more thorough risk evaluation in these individuals. The findings are consistent with earlier studies indicating that venous stasis, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction create conditions favourable for thrombosis in individuals suffering from chronic venous disease.
Conclusion: The findings highlight the importance of increased awareness and tailored risk evaluation in the treatment of patients with varicose veins. Additional investigations involving larger participant groups are necessary to validate these results and enhance screening procedures.
