Soreness after laser vein surgery. Is there a reason for concern?

Pain can be caused by normal and abnormal processes. I would suggest a follow up examination after your sclerotherapy. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles Vein Expert

Soreness after laser vein surgery is a common side effect. It may last anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, depending on the size of the vein that was closed. You should consult with your physician if the pain is severe, or if it does not improve after two to three months.

It is very common to have discomfort after vein ablation.  It may last for a month or more.  It is always best to notify your treating doctor if you have questions or concerns following a treatment. If you contacted your doctor and he/she evaluated the situation and reassured you that everything is ok, then you should be comfortable that the discomfort is within the spectrum of normal symptoms. 

A follow up appointment with your vein specialist is recommended to evaluate if you are healing properly after the vein procedures. Using ultrasound to scan your legs, your physician will also determine patency of the deep system and closure of the superficial veins that were treated. Thank you for your question. Best, 

Assuming you had Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) I can assume you have had f/u office visits along with ultrasound evaluations.  Tenderness over the treated vein is very normal and can last several weeks to sometime a couple of months.  Occasionally "thrombophlebitis" can occur.  This si treated with warm compress and compression stockings and Tylenol as needed.  If concerned I would have treating physician evaluate the area.
