Text: The 2 2 mixed model ANCOVA with repeated measurements showed statistically significant group * time interaction for heaviness (F = 22. 99, p = 0. 002), claudication (F = 8. 57, p = 0. 004), swelling (F = 22. 58, p = 0. 001), muscle cramps (F = 7. 14, p = 0. 008), venous refill time (right : F = 9. 45, p = 0. 023 ; left : F = 14. 86, p = 0. 001), venous pump function (right : F = 35. 55, p = 0. 004 ; left : F = 17. 39 p = 0. 001), extracellular water (right : F = 35. 55, p = 0. 004 ; left : F = 23. 84, p = 0. 001), severity (F = 18. 47, p = 0. 001), physical function (F = 9. 15, p = 0. 003) and body pain (F = 3. 36, p = 0. 043).
