Do you ever get achy, restless feelings in your feet and legs that get worse when you lay down? The answer might be that you suffer from venous insufficiency. Venous insufficiency is the malfunction or failure of the venous walls that causes abnormal blood flow. Venous insufficiency can also occur when the venous valves in systemic circulation are damaged or malfunction. This type of insufficiency is referred to as “idiopathic,” which means it can occur suddenly or have an unknown cause. Here’s more information regarding damaged veins, its symptoms, and causes.

Simply call the main number, and a member of our staff will make the arrangements for you to speak with one of our medical professionals.

We Are Still Seeing Patients

During this time, we are still OPEN and serving our patients with extra precautions in place to minimize the risk of COVID-19.

We want to underline the efforts we undergo to maintain the cleanliness and sanitation of our facilities, along with methods of social distancing to protect all patients:

  • We strictly limit the number of people in the clinic at any one time, and schedule accordingly.
  • We ask that friends and family members wait outside during your visit.
  • Anyone with a temperature is asked to cancel their appointment
  • Our staff is regularly disinfecting surfaces, counters, seats, and door handles throughout the day
  • Daily sanitation and disinfection of all equipment with professional-grade antibacterial cleaner
  • Used masks, syringes, wipes, gloves, and tissues are removed safely and are disposed of daily

Safe, Non-Surgical Solutions for Treating Knee Pain

, Pain Management

If you’re suffering from knee pain, you’re certainly not alone. From osteoarthritis to injury to wear-and-tear, it affects millions of people every day. In fact, the prevalence of knee pain is an estimated 19% of the population. And as you get older, you’re more likely to suffer. It’s no wonder why knee surgery is one of the most common operating procedures in the US.

Yet today, more healthcare professionals question the abundance of knee surgery. A 2013 study compared two-year outcomes of patients who received surgery versus a placebo group, receiving a “sham” procedure. The authors concluded that there was “no significant between group changes.” Meaning – those who received a fake procedure were no better off than the group with real knee surgery.

Luckily, there are solutions – no surgery or pills required. Read on for Atlanta Medical Clinic’s treatment for patients with knee pain.
