Usually 1-2 days: Depend on what you mean? Tightness, pain, swelling? What ? If you wear prescription support stockings n walk at least 30 minutes a day.... You should be able to go to irk in approximate 2 days. We say no weight lifting for 5 days; if your neck veins stick out or your face turns red... Wait 5 days.... But walk, wak, walk. What was wrong?

RF Closure: Everyone heals at a different rate. However, most people who undergo a closure procedure with RF should be back to most routine activities within 5 to 7 days. Most discomfort tends to occur in the upper medial thigh because this is the area where the great saphenous veins is treated with the most energy.
