Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to the varicose vein. I suggest doing an ultrasound of the leg to exclude the possibility of a blood clot. Meanwhile, for the pain, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Acetaminophen.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
