Is sclerotheraphy bad for health?

Question

What are the side effects when you undergo sclerotherapy? In the general, will this affect my health? Is it advisable or recommendable for patients with varicous veins? Are there options to prevent the appearance of varicous veins?

Answer 1

Certain side effects may be experienced after sclerotherapy. Larger injected varicose veins may become lumpy and hard for several months before resolving. Raised red areas may appear at the injection sites and should disappear within a few days. Brown lines or spots on the skin may be noted at the site of the injection, possibly caused by a form of iron that escapes from the injected veins. In most cases, they disappear within 3 to 6 months, but can be permanent about 5 percent of the time. Bruising may occur around the injection site and can last several days or weeks.Other side effects rarely develop after sclerotherapy. >Inflammation within five inches of the groin
>Sudden onset of a swollen leg
>Formation of small ulcers at the injection site
>Red streaking, especially in the groin area
>Allergic reactions to the sclerosing agent may occur at the time of the injection and are rarely serious.
It is kind of cosmetic surgery with high reported success but there are also few reports of unfavorable effects therefore I could say its effect on health depends on the individual fate. You can try to cover it up with recommended hosiery (if it is on legs)
