Not getting relief from blood in stools after a week of the prescription medicines. Should I continue with Daflon 500 for another week? Any other alternatives.
I have been suffering from varicose veins since last 20 years. I am using stockings, ointment massage treatment for pain relief. Also putting pillow below my feet, while I sleep. But not getting permanent relief from the disease. I suffer from severe pains, if I walk for 10 to 15 minutes. One of local doctor has advised me to do laser operation for permanent relief. Some doctors opine that laser treatment is also not a permanent relief. After some period, the trouble restarts again. Kindly advise over the permanent relief on varicose veins.
