I have a DVT in my left leg and have to wear a compression sock because the valve is broken. Is there a surgical treatment to fix this?

There really are no procedures used to correct bad veins or fix broken valves. If a stocking is necessary to prevent swelling and also prevent DVTs, then this may be something that has to be worn long term. It is difficult to comment on directly without seeing an ultrasound or venogram.
