How To Treat Vericose Vein?

My right leg stated bleeding from a spot 2 weeks ago. It stopped. Then last week it started gushing blood from the same spot. The ER caterized it with a chemical. It is healing. But my leg is really swollen now and other dark spots appear to be showing up on my leg now too and I a afraid they might start bleeding too. My leg is heavy and stiff and painful. They said I have Vericose veins. Is there anything I can do to relieve the pressure or pain? I take Prilosec daily and I have psoriasis. I used to take lisinopril daily but stopped a month or two ago as I ran out and am out of state. My blood pressure was good the walk in clinic told me before I went to the ER.

The ultimate solution is the classical surgery for varicose veins is definitive surgery.

You have to take medicines for you other medical problems as before.
