Dr Ravul Jindal, director, vascular surgery, Fortis Hospital Mohali, said this while addressing a press meet regarding varicose veins treatment here on Saturday.

Dr Jindal, said: “A wide range of advanced treatment options are available for varicose veins such as foam sclerotherapy and laser treatment of the diseased vein. Foam sclerotherapy is used to treat bulging varicose veins and spider veins. The procedure is less painful and takes about 30 minutes. A patient has an early recovery and can go home within an hour of the procedure. Also, there are fewer medications and post-procedure care.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
