Since you have pain since 8 years only medications will not not suffice
Kindly first do venous doppler and go for definative surgery as per geading and doctors advise.
But you can take
Diosmin + Hesperidin – 500 mg BD after meals
To improves venous tone, reduces pain/heaviness
Paracetamol or Etoricoxib SOS for pain
Most important: compression stockings daily
