Hello, My father is 60 years of age. A month ago his left calf became swollen. The doctor did an ultra sound and this is the report: Cellulitis both lower legs, lymphadenopathy in left upper thigh, lesser saphenous varicose veins in B/L lowers legs, no e/o DVT, arterial flow normal. Doctor prescribed him:- Osil 500 mg and Brutozyme, both to be taken twice a day. But even after a month, the swelling has hardly gone down. And my father feels no change in his legs for the better. Please help and advice what to do. Are the medicines prescribed enough. Is there anything serious to worry about? Does it take a long time to heal? How long? Should we see another doctor? Any advice is appreciated. Thank You.

Hello Dolten! your father taking right medicine as osil is for varicose veins n brutozyme is for wound cleaning, your father diagnosed acute varicose veins but no thrombosis, but this varicose veins problem doesn't start suddenly, it goes increasing slowly for long time n some aggravating factor turns into acute condition, so as this is long term disease doest not respond sudden with medicine even age is 60, in this age medicine already work slowly as degenerative changes started, in this you didn't mention about sugar level, this also a disappointing factor in varicose veins, I suggest you to take ayurvedic treatment with these medicine so that we can provide strength to the veins as Ayurveda have rasayana medicines for rejuvenation, this disease gets slow results about 1 year to heal, for more information please contact me on private chat, with more personal information about bp sugar n operational history etc. Till then take care,
