Hello I am a 43 year old female who constantly struggles with her legs. I have had the veins that were really bad sealed in my legs, I am also on 6 mg of Coumadin for life due to dvt s in both legs. I now struggle with getting cellulitis in my left leg. I take fluid pills as needed but what else can I do???

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Elevation of the legs and the use of compression stockings may help.

The stockings would help would help to improve the blood flow back to the heart.

I hope this helps
