Venous Duplex Ultrasound (Varicose veins scan): This ultrasound examination evaluates the veins in your legs to detect any abnormalities, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) – which is a vascular emergency – or varicose veins / venous reflux, which could contribute to your leg pain.

Leg pain and itchiness can indeed be caused by venous issues such as venous reflux or varicose veins disease. Venous reflux or insufficiency occurs when the valves within the veins are weakened or damaged, which can cause blood to pool in the veins. When the veins in the legs have difficulty returning blood to the heart effectively, it can lead to various symptoms.

The symptoms of leg claudication can vary but commonly include:
Leg pain, itchiness, leg swelling, heaviness, fatigue, varicose veins, and skin changes such as redness, discoloration, or the development of ulcers.
If you suspect that venous insufficiency may be the cause of your leg pain and itchiness, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional, such as a vascular specialist for an evaluation scan.
