I had Sclerotherapy 4 days ago and have joint stiffness and pain. Could it be the compression hose?

Asked By:Kackydo in Houston, TX

My provider is a board certified dermotologist who wants me to refrain from excercising for 1 week. I suspect if I moved around more, I'd feel less achy but want to follow what the doctor advises. What are your thoughts? The doctor advises me to wear compression hose except for when sleeping/showering which I do. Could it be that the compression hose are causing me to feel achy.
