What Causes Swollen Ankle After Using Injections For Varicose Veins?

About three weeks ago I had some injections in my leg for varicose veins. Not sure if this is related but my ankle is quite swollen, directly above my ankle feels prickly and numb. I do have a follow up tomorrow. Is this something I need to worry about tonight?
