Varicose Vein Treatment for Gulfport, MS Patients
Gulfport, MS is served by our D’Iberville clinic, where our team offers varicose vein treatment alongside in-office ultrasound diagnosis. Whether this is your first time seeking vein care or you've been managing symptoms for years, our goal is to make the process simple.
What Is Varicose Veins?
Treatment for enlarged, damaged leg veins that can cause aching, swelling, and skin changes if left untreated.
Dr. J. Keith Thompson evaluates each patient to find the underlying cause of varicose veins, often starting with an in-office ultrasound to map how blood is flowing through the leg. Depending on the size and location of the vein, treatment may include vein ablation (EVLT, radiofrequency ablation, VenaSeal, or Varithena), microphlebectomy, or sclerotherapy to close or remove the damaged vein so blood reroutes through healthier veins nearby.

Who This Helps
Gulfport patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about varicose veins:
- Bulging, rope-like veins visible under the skin
- Aching, throbbing, or a feeling of heaviness in the legs
- Swelling in the lower legs and ankles
- Itching or burning near an affected vein
- Skin discoloration close to a varicose vein
- Symptoms that worsen after standing or sitting for long periods
How It Works & Recovery
Your first visit starts with check-in — no stack of forms to fill out — followed by a one-on-one conversation with your provider about your symptoms. Many patients also have an ultrasound the same day to help identify which veins are involved, so a treatment plan can be discussed right away.
Most varicose vein procedures are performed in-office using local anesthesia, with little to no downtime. Many patients resume normal activities the same day, and walking is encouraged right after treatment to support circulation.
