A member asked:
Hi i would like to know how can be removed an external jugular vein trombosis.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually not removed: Superficial vein thromboses are usually not removed. The body will reabsorbed this thrombosed vein in time. If it is something that you feel needs to be done for cosmetic reasons then you can consult a plastic surgeon about this.
