Varicose Veins I have varicose veins in my right leg,I am 47 years old. I recently went to a doctor who performs the procedure called closure. I'm not sure if this is the right direction to go or if I should have the stripping of my veins done surgically. Having the procedure closure done would that put more stress on my other veins in my leg? I heard that other varicose veins would surface in time. What do you think would be the right decision for me? From: SusieB22854@aol.com Story Categories UPDATED STORIES CATEGORIES   Feb. 16 6 Aneurysms May. 19 48 Blood Clots (Venous ...
