By Mayo Clinic staffNo treatments can cure Buerger's disease. Instead, your doctor may try various treatment approaches to reduce any signs and symptoms you have. Options include:
- Counseling or medications to help you stop smoking and stop the swelling in your blood vessels
- Medications to improve blood flow or to dissolve blood clots
- Surgery to cut the nerves in the affected area (surgical sympathectomy) to control pain
- Amputation, if infection or gangrene occurs
