Detailed Answer:
Brief Ans-?Lymphedema with Painful Legs/ Under Evaluation
Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM.
Read and reviewed your query in context to your burning/ swollen painful legs.
Before I go ahead in its evaluation-I would need more information as follows-
When did you undergo Vein Surgery and which side?-or on both sides?
What type of Vein Surgery -was it EVLT(Endo-Venous-Laser Treatment) with foam sclerotherapy / or Stripping of affected Leg Veins ?
Any updates on the course of post-surgical progress?Was it smooth or was it with complications? please elaborate in short?
Whats your weight / height?
What sort of Job you do-prior to Vein Surgery?
What was your life and dietary Style?
Update pictures of your swollen legs to assess the severity of your health issue.
Update any reports / and discharge notes of the attending doctors and of the hospital.
There are many reasons for the swollen leg post- Vein Surgery.To fix one of it in your case, I would need to study your case in next few sessions.
My Understanding of your current problem-
Based on the facts of your query,Prima Facie it appears that post-Vein Surgery your life has become disturbed and mostly by Leg Edema?or RLS?
I would not label your case as Restless Leg Syndrome- as its with a definite cause of- Post- Surgical Leg problem.
Do's Suggested-
Rest / Elevation
Venous Stockings
I would suggest More solutions only after getting detailed information as asked above.
Welcome for any further query in this regard.
Good Day !!
