I can't tell if my veins are making any progress with Sclerotherapy?

cafpn
I had sclerotherapy done nearly three weeks ago and I can't tell if veins are improving. Parts of the veins have disappeared but the rest sometimes looks worse, other times a little better .. is this normal? Could the veins still be closing and clotting this far post treatment? My veins get pretty achy at times too, especially in the past week.
