A member asked:

Is it normal to have bantam or a tugging -fullness -feeling in leg area after vein laser ablation 5 days post treatment? during my walk i felt it. how long ? this was 2nd ablation from inner thigh?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I don't view this as unusual so soon after the procedure. You can expect some injury,inflammation,irritation to tissues and injury to nerves along the involved veins. Presence of bruising is testament to these occurrences with this procedure.
