When to see a doctor

Seek care if you notice any of the following

  • If you notice large blood clots in your varicose veins that are bigger than a pea, go to your nearest clinic or hospital immediately.
  • If you experience severe pain in your legs that makes it difficult to walk or stand, go to your nearest clinic or hospital right away.
  • If you have varicose veins that are bleeding heavily and won't stop after 10 minutes of pressure, go to your nearest clinic or hospital immediately.
  • If you notice that your haemorrhoids are bleeding and you see bright red blood on your toilet paper or in the toilet bowl, go to your nearest clinic or hospital soon.
  • If you have haemorrhoids that are causing you to pass stools that are black or tarry, go to your nearest clinic or hospital as soon as possible.
