I had a vnus closure procedure on my right leg.I was given twilight sedation. I experienced a hot fire burning sensation along my leg during the procedure which caused me to cry out in pain. Is this normal? What can I do to avoid this during the procedure on my left leg?
Any time there is a procedure, the area is messed with. This can cause pain. The outside where the cut was done was anesthetized BUT the inside of the vein isn't hit by it. It got messed with by the procedure. It hurt. Change the anesthesia, either the riskier general anesthesia or putting numbing medicine inside the vein first. It mostly works. It isn't 100%.
