Hello there!
If the deep veins are free of DVT and you have no other comorbidity the best way to manage here is to strip the varicosities or sclerotherapy of the varicosities.But the infection and the pain needs to rule out DVT as in that case varcosities can not be treated surgically. use compressive stockings and raise leg when ever possible
