Patient's question:
Doctor, I have phlebitis, and the skin on my lower limbs is red and swollen, with a large area of swelling. It feels extremely painful when touched. I want to find a medicine that can treat my phlebitis.Hello Doctor, what kind of medicine is most effective for phlebitis? Is traditional Chinese medicine better or Western medicine?
Doctor's answer:
After the recurrence of phlebitis, the main symptoms that can reappear are redness, swelling, and pain at the venous site. Once these symptoms reappear, timely treatment can be administered based on the severity of the phlebitis. Primarily, topical medications can be used for treatment depending on the situation. If the condition is more severe, appropriate oral medications may need to be used in conjunction to promote gradual recovery to health.
