S/P sclerotherapy of labial varicose vein

shoshana
I had 2 treatments with Sotradecol on a varicose vein on my labia. It has reduced it in size, but it is now very hard. My last sclerotherapy treatment was 3 weeks ago. It was suggested that there may be a localized clot & it can be expressed through a small nick. Does this sound correct?
