I am post major saphenous vein ablation bilateral. I use thigh hi compression stockings bilateral. My left leg becomes painful ( aches ) in left leg mostly, only when I lie down to take an afternoon nap or put my feet up when watching TV. I am concerned that my that it may be more serious arterial insufficiency. When I remove the left compression hose (30-40mmhg) they are less painful. Walking helps and I go to gym most days and walk 65 min. and lift small wts. and use rowing machine 15 min. Should I not wear compression hose on the left leg. I wear them all day but not when sleeping.
