The timing for resuming exercise after varicose vein treatment depends on the type of procedure performed and individual recovery. For minimally invasive treatments like sclerotherapy, VenaSeal, laser therapy, or radiofrequency ablation (RFA), light exercise, such as walking, can generally be resumed within a few days.
More intense activities should be avoided for 1-2 weeks to allow the treated veins to heal properly. For more invasive procedures like vein stripping, a longer recovery period of several weeks may be necessary before resuming vigorous exercise. It is important to follow your healthcare provider’s specific recommendations regarding exercise and activity levels. Gradually reintroduce physical activities and monitor for any discomfort or adverse effects.
Consulting with your healthcare provider will ensure that you resume exercise safely and effectively while supporting your overall recovery.
