Day 1, 4 and 7 So Far

ORIGINAL POST

Day 1, 4 and 7 So Far

Day 1, 4 and 7 after sclerotherapy for spider veins. Day 1 tender, aching and immediately bruised. Told I didn’t need to wear compression stockings. Day 4 using bio oil, Tylenol and arnica a lot and looking pretty good. Day 7 older looking bruises still having aching in my legs when standing. I have been wearing compression couple hours during day and at night.

I’ve been doing this for years and I can’t believe they told you not to wear stockings!! Absolutely everywhere it’s mandatory for 48 hours no removal at all and then for 2 weeks straight. From someone who’s had this for years please wear stockings!!
stockings makes each treatment more successful .......my dr says wear the 150 compression which is more comfortable and i wore 3 weeks
I just had it done 3.5 weeks ago. My doctor had me wear them for the first week 24/7, even in the shower ( blew dry after ) and 12 hours a day the second week. I’m wearing them while working out and if I’m walking a lot. I understand it can take a while to heal.
