Wear compression for as long as the therapist recommends. This keeps areas from developing brown spots and localized clots. Report any non-healing injection sites.

Healing After Sclerotherapy
Difficult to answer this question without knowing exactly what kind of symptoms you are experiencing. Typically, patients experience mild soreness and bruising in the areas treated and then temporary discoloration. Generally speaking, I recommend wearing compression hose and elevating the legs when possible. If you are concerned about your healing, I recommend you consult with the physician who did the treatment.
