Leg Swelling Treatment for Ocean Springs, MS Patients
Patients from Ocean Springs travel a short distance to our D’Iberville office for leg swelling treatment. The Vein Institute is home to South Mississippi's only 100%, full-time, board-certified vein specialist, and we welcome patients from Ocean Springs and nearby communities.
What Is Leg Swelling?
Evaluation and treatment for leg swelling caused by underlying vein disease rather than treating the swelling alone.
Leg swelling is one of the most common symptoms of underlying vein disease. Dr. J. Keith Thompson evaluates swelling with an ultrasound to check for venous insufficiency, then treats the underlying vein — through vein ablation, sclerotherapy, or microphlebectomy — rather than just the symptom.

Who This Helps
Ocean Springs patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about leg swelling:
- Swelling in the lower legs and ankles, especially by the end of the day
- Legs that feel tight or heavy
- Swelling that improves overnight but returns during the day
- Skin changes around a swollen area
How It Works & Recovery
At your consultation, you'll meet with your provider to talk through your symptoms and history. If an ultrasound is needed to map the affected veins, our Certified Vascular Sonographer can often perform it during the same visit, and you'll be given a treatment plan based on the results.
As the underlying vein disease is treated, many patients notice their swelling, heaviness, and aching gradually improve.

Frequently Asked Questions
Not always — but when swelling is paired with varicose veins, heaviness, or skin changes, an ultrasound evaluation can help rule venous insufficiency in or out.
Depending on the ultrasound findings, treatment may include vein ablation, sclerotherapy, or microphlebectomy.
When veins can't efficiently move blood back toward the heart, blood can pool in the lower legs, leading to swelling, especially by the end of the day.
In many cases, yes. If your provider recommends an ultrasound to evaluate your leg veins, our Certified Vascular Sonographer can often perform it the same day as your consultation.
