My left leg has mild pain and varicose veins when I walk or jog for an hour. The doctor said there's no valve damage yet and recommended Daflon tablets and stockings, but I'm worried about it turning into DVT later. Can I get laser surgery now to prevent complications or should I stick to the current treatment plan?

Given the mild symptoms and lack of valve damage, sticking to the doctor's recommended treatment plan of Daflon tablets and stockings is likely the best approach initially. While varicose veins can increase the risk of DVT, they also often progress slowly
