You should definitely see your doctor as soon as possible if any of the following develop:<\/p>\n

\n
• Superficial thrombophlebitis. This is a clot in a larger vein just below the skin surface. Skin overlying skin can be red. The vein typically is hard to touch, painful and tender. Especially if this is recurrent.<\/li>\n
• Bleeding varicose vein<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  You should consider see your doctor on a non-urgent basis if any of the following develop:<\/p>\n

  \n
  • Your leg symptoms are interfering with your daily activities<\/li>\n
  • Slow development of an unexpected rash near the ankle, usually inner aspect or front.<\/li>\n
  • The skin around the ankle and calf becomes thickened and changes colour<\/li>\n
  • Ankle swelling<\/li>\n
  • You find the veins visually worrisome.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
