My skin is so delicate. If any thing hit my legs the skin is peeling off.
Brief Answer:
Hello again
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You have not provided me the information which I have requested. However as you are telling that your skin is getting peeled off if it gets scratched then the problem is most likely to be severe and needs proper medical attention.
In my opinion you should follow Your consulting doctors advise as the treatment of varicose is simple procedure involving ablation of the diseased veins with the help of radio waves. The final outcome is good in majority of the patients.
Hope to have been helpful.
