Had Vein Removed Near Knee And Groin, Blood Clots. What Is Wrong?
Hello
I have had my vains stripped on 17/9.after 3 weeks I have discovered like a hard wire going from my knee to my groin where I had my main vein removed. Doctor told me it's a big blood cloth but it's not much to worry as it's not inside my vain as the vain it's gone it's just were the vain was before.he sent me back home not asking to do scan or anything else. I am so worried and don't know where to ask for help.

Hi, it appears to be the blood clot from the cut ends of the vein, as the path of the vein is acessible the oozing has settled in the path and cloted there .
It usually is desolved and absorbed in to the blood stream .
I to my patient with such a symptom prescribe thrombolytic ointment, and vitamin C tablets, and some antibiotic to prevent infection.
Thank you.
