Suggest Remedy For A Swelling In The Leg

I am a healthy 43 years old women. I have been very active in my life but since past 6 months have taken break from job.I feel pain and heaviness in my leg all the time, especially after waking up in the morning. My right leg veins swells up after long walking, jumping or sitting and they have burst too. I am or rather used to be very energetic person but now due to the leg pain I avoid strenuous work . I don t like the situation I am in. Any solutions?

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi, you should get examined by a Surgeon and get a Color Doppler test done for the affected limb. This will tell us whether there is any Deep vein thrombosis or incompetence in your superficial veins. Then only can we decide what treatment to offer to you. Do not worry. It could be Varicose veins and they can be managed easily.
Once the check up and investigations are done, you could let us know by leaving a Direct or a Specialist query and we can get back to you.
Take care,
