I just wanted to let you know that my left leg and right leg are really shaping up well. I would certainly recommend the procedures.But I wanted to let you know a little more about my right leg. I did, of course, keep the compression stockings on for the full length of time and when I first took them off the vein that had been treated showed only as a feint brown line. This has now changed and the whole vein looks to me as though it is bruised – like a bruise is going to appear. This is no problem as I have read this will fade. But near my knee the vein gets quite hot and swollen by the end of the day. Ibuprofen helps and as you state the vein can feel a bit feel a bit sore and lumpy and it feels bruised and a bit hot. It is not a huge bother but thought I should mention it as it’s only happened in the last couple of weeks. I hope you don’t mind my long description.
Many thanks for all your help –
Best wishes
