I have had this swelling for about 6 months now. Visited my general doctor he said the vein has gone weak suggested me to wear anklet support to apply uniform pressure, but I have found no improvement. The clot is getting bigger now. It pains sometimes(not always).Compression stockings don't cover the entire affected area(almost near to the toe). What to do? What medical condition is this? How to get rid of this vein?
