Has anyone needed to have sclerotherapy after having a Lymphocele that won’t dry up after drain tube?

We are just trying to hear from people on the experience, outcome, side effects, risks, recovery time, pain, complications etc. Anything.

From Dr. Dr. Googley:

How Long Does Sclerotherapy Last?

Sclerotherapy is an innovative treatment that is used to treat varicose veins and spider veins on your thighs, calves, and other locations on your body. One of the main benefits of this sclerotherapy treatment is its ability to produce long-lasting effects.

This sclerotherapy treatment will create permanent changes in the appearance of your veins. After we treat your damaged veins, they will become scar tissue and gradually dissolve over time. As a result, these veins will not require future treatment. That said, this treatment will not stop you from developing spider or varicose veins in the future. If these veins bother you, you can address them with additional treatments.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
