Murfreesboro is home to more than 171,000 residents, with adults making up the majority of the community. Based on national prevalence estimates, approximately 31,500 adults in Murfreesboro may be living with visible varicose veins, while around 7,900 may have more advanced chronic venous disease, including chronic venous insufficiency.
Vein disease can cause more than visible veins. Symptoms such as persistent leg swelling, aching, heaviness, itching, skin discoloration, or venous ulcers may indicate an underlying circulation problem. When these symptoms continue or worsen, a vein evaluation can help identify the cause and determine whether treatment is appropriate.

Varicose veins are commonly treated by physicians with specialized vascular and venous expertise, including interventional radiologists. Trident’s physicians use ultrasound-guided and catheter-based techniques to diagnose and treat venous disease.
Trident evaluates conditions including varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, spider veins, leg swelling, heaviness, aching, skin changes, and venous ulcers. A consultation and duplex ultrasound can help determine whether symptoms are related to abnormal vein circulation.
Varicose veins should be evaluated when they cause persistent pain, swelling, heaviness, itching, skin discoloration, bleeding, or sores that are slow to heal. Sudden one-sided swelling, warmth, redness, or significant pain should be assessed promptly.
Many varicose veins are not immediately dangerous, but they can be associated with chronic venous insufficiency and complications such as swelling, skin changes, ulcers, bleeding, or superficial vein inflammation. Persistent or worsening symptoms should be evaluated.
The right treatment depends on symptoms, vein anatomy, and duplex ultrasound findings. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include conservative measures, ClosureFast™ radiofrequency ablation, Varithena®, ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy, or other minimally invasive options.
Compression stockings can help reduce swelling and discomfort by supporting blood flow out of the lower legs. They may help control symptoms, but they do not eliminate existing varicose veins or correct every case of underlying venous reflux.
