I had scelotherapy almost 3 weeks ago. For the last 2 days I've had a very sore lump on the back of my left leg. Is this normal or should I get it checked before I travel?

Answer: Flying after Sclerotherapy I recommend getting the lump evaluated to see if it needs to be removed. You are fine to fly, but I would follow your Dr's protocols regarding compression. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Superficial vein thrombophlebitis leg I recommend that you get it examined and that time also have a venous Doppler ultrasound to make sure there no concurrent deep vein thrombosis, esp before travel. If there is superficial vein thrombosis, it can be drained for immediate pain relief. H Karamanoukian MD FCS certified vein specialist from ABVLM and double board certified surgeon
