Yes, see the vascular specialist - the healed wound is not the point. A vein that burst on its own means long-standing venous hypertension, and untreated it will ulcerate again, usually worse and slower to heal the next time. Get a venous Doppler of both legs; that decides between laser/RFA ablation, sclerotherapy or surgery. Till then, class II graduated compression stockings worn from morning, leg elevation above heart level several times a day, walking daily and no long standing. Antibiotics and pantoprazole treated the infection, not the disease. If the leg becomes red, hot, painful, swells suddenly or bleeds again, lie down, elevate the leg, press firmly and get to a hospital the same day.
