Do you regularly experience unexplainable pain, tingling, or heaviness in your legs?

If so, you may have a vascular issue, like varicose veins or blood clots. Blood clots often form in the legs and can be serious if they move, especially to the heart or brain. 😦

Some symptoms for blood clots are:

- Lumpy or twisted veins
- Legs feeling heavy or achy
- Numbness or tingling
- Restless legs/muscles
- Warmth, swelling, or tenderness

If you have these symptoms, make sure to contact a medical professional. To set up an appointment with us, call 307-682-9962 today! ❤️

Here at Wyoming Medical, we can perform gallbladder surgery using minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques. 👍

We use a laparoscope, which is a flexible video tube that fits into a small abdominal incision, to view the gallbladder.

Using the laparoscopic camera as a guide, we then insert more instruments through other small incisions, cutting the tissues that hold your gallbladder in place.

Oftentimes, this gallbladder removal surgery can be an outpatient surgery, but we monitor each patient and do what's best for them. ❤️

Do you have varicose veins? One of the advanced treatments we provide for varicose veins is called sclerotherapy.

First, we partner with our sonographer to examine and assess your veins, working to understand the underlying issues of your aliment.

From there, is sclerotherapy is deemed necessary, we will use ultrasound imaging as a guide and inject a foam into your damaged veins. 💉 Over time, these veins will collapse and be reabsorbed into the body, naturally redirecting blood flow to the healthy veins in your legs.

To learn more about this treatment and other varicose vein services, call us at 307-682-9962! 🙂

Do you know what a hernia is? 🤔

A hernia occurs when an organ pushes through your internal muscles due to a break in the abdominal wall. Most often, this happens in the abdomen, but this stressor can affect the upper thigh and groin also.

Most hernias are not life threatening, but they don't go away on their own. Since they cause great pain, surgery is often required.

During this surgery, Dr. Rinker and his team will make a small incision to place the herniated organ back to its designated spot, repairing the break in the process.

For more information on hernias and surgery options, call 307-682-9962 to request an appointment today! 🙂
