Can vein stripping help with leg pain, swelling, or heaviness?

For individuals experiencing leg pain, swelling, or a feeling of heaviness due to varicose veins or chronic venous insufficiency, how effective is vein stripping in relieving these symptoms, and what improvements can patients typically expect after the procedure?

I had pretty bad varicose veins, and vein stripping made a noticeable difference. The pain and throbbing reduced significantly, and the overall swelling went down. Recovery was a bit uncomfortable at first, but the improvement in daily life was worth it.
