Leg Swelling Treatment for Sumrall, MS Patients
Sumrall, MS patients looking for leg swelling treatment don't have to travel far. The Vein Institute's Hattiesburg office serves Sumrall and the surrounding area, offering the same board-certified vein care available at all three of our South Mississippi locations.
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
Sumrall 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
Plan for a consultation focused on you: your provider will ask about your symptoms, review your history, and often recommend an in-office ultrasound to map the affected veins. From there, you'll discuss which treatment options make sense for your situation.
As the underlying vein disease is treated, many patients notice their swelling, heaviness, and aching gradually improve.
