Hello,
It is difficult condition to cure. You can try compression stockings. Diuretics like lasix may be effective. In severe cases surgical correction may be required. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr. Shinas Hussain
