Is it safe to travel after 30 days of EVLT with inflammation is still there?

nahloosh74
I had saphanous vein EVLT 30 days ago, my latest ultrasound showed inflammation in the calf and inner thigh, doctor prescribed ani-inflammatory and said it’s ok to travel as he sealed the way to the femur main vein. Is it ok I travel for 5 hours flight?
