After EVLT There's a small bulge or hard knot in a vein on the inner thigh of my treated leg? Normal? (Photo)

Asked By:enaking in Allen Park, MI

I'm 2 weeks post EVLT procedure. I'm having slight discomfort in area of knot, especially to touch. I still have discoloration where the vein was treated. Is this normal or cause for concern? If normal when will it go away? I'm finding contradicting info on after care following an EVLT online. I was told to wear my compression stockings for 2 days and avoid extreme heat for 2 weeks. When can I go in the sun? How long should compression Stocking be worn? I have a beach trip planned in 2 weeks.
