HelloI have had my vains stripped on 17/9.after 3 weeks I have discovered like a hard wire going from my knee to my groin where I had my main vein removed. Doctor told me its a big blood cloth but its not much to worry as its not inside my vain as the vain its gone its just were the vain was before.he sent me back home not asking to do scan or anything else. I am so worried and dont know where to ask for help.
Hi, it appears to be the blood clot from the cut ends of the vein, as the path of the vein is accessible the oozing has settled in the path and clotted there.  It is usually resolved and absorbed in to the blood stream.  I to my patient with such a symptom prescribe thrombolytic ointment, and vitamin C tablets, and some antibiotic to prevent infection.  Thank you.
