It has been two years since I had the foam Sclerotherapy injection. The discolouration has now gone and my leg looks great. However, at first I reacted badly to the treatment and my leg blistered. I was advised to use a cream to heal this but that did not work. The leg was still bad after a while so I was prescribed Penicillin and Amoxycillin to be taken together in doses of 500mg each for a week and to use another type of cream. I could not continue the whole prescribed amount as it resulted in a severe bout of diarrhea which kept me off work for a week. The blistering did go away and the discolouration has now gone completely. I do however still get the occasional pain from the area where the vein was but this is never worse than the ache from the vein before the treatment and overall I am glad that I have had the vein treated.
