<br/><br/> Varicose veins  are not only a cosmetic annoyance ; they can lead to complications that result in loss of time from work . Treatment has improved to reduce recovery time and complications . Purpose of the study was to study the effect of each different cycle setting of intermittent pneumatic compression ( rapid and slow deflation ) on maximal blood flow velocity , mean blood flow velocity , refilling time and pain intensity level in varicose veins patients and also to compare the effect of two different cycle settings
