Question

severe pain on inner thigh where tube was put in for ablation

Jerimiah Mason, MD · Answer

I agree that pain a year out is not typical after vein treatment.  It may not be anything serious, but I would recommend seeing the physician who initially treated your veins. They will probably end up recommending another ultrasound.

Hello and thanks for your question. I recommend to follow up with your provider. An ultrasound might be needed to check on the vein that was treated in the past and to check your venous circulation in general. All the best,

Hello and thank you for your question. I suggest making an appointment with the doctor who performed your ablation. It is not normal to have pain, let alone severe pain, a year later. Good luck to you.Dr. T

John Landi, MD · Answer

Upper inner thigh pain following an ablation is very common but usually occurs from 2 to 6 weeks post procedure.  It is not normal to have continued inner thigh pain one year after the ablation.  You should have a repeat venous sonogram of that area and follow up with your treating physician.
