Shock wave and vein ligation - contra indication ?
Posted: Fri Apr 09, 2021 9:33 am
Hello to all,
I had a vein ligation 3 years ago which improved my ed situation and made me respond to drugs (injections and high dosage pills).
I wanted to try shockwave therapy as I am in a country where it is quite cheap and I already asked two urologists loosely if they see any contraindications. They said no.
But since I have had bad experiences with physicians before I d think about my "fears".
During vein ligation the veins get isolated and sutured with a small suture. After tiying them off there will be a thrombus/clot which blocks the vein as well.
Now my question is if after some years the suture gets loose do you think it will "reopen" the former vein ?
Do you think the shockwave treatment will possibly destroy the suture ?
