What to expect after your procedure
Immediately after Endovenous Laser Ablation, you will typically be encouraged to walk to promote circulation. Compression stockings will be applied and should be worn for approximately one week, or as directed by your surgeon, to aid healing and reduce swelling. While some pain, bruising, and tightness along the treated vein are common, these symptoms are usually mild and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Most patients can resume light daily activities almost immediately, though strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, and prolonged standing or sitting should be avoided for a few days to a week. Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your recovery and ensure optimal results. It's crucial to stay hydrated and continue walking regularly to prevent complications and support the healing process.
