Could running 1 or 2 days after sclerotherapy cause problems?

November 18, 2013
Asked By:Transforme

Hi I had sclerotherapy today and the dr told me not to do any strenuous exercise for the next two weeks! I've been looking on here and most other drs recommend only a day or two rest then back to normal life. I am wondering if I decide to go for a run for say about half an hour either tomorrow or the next day would this cause any problems and if so what? I didn't have many veins injected and am wearing compression stockings.
