[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 732981, member: 1963"] I have/had varicose veins, but only in my right leg. Years of working sitting on my behind after years of working on my feet. Right leg I think because of favoring my left. Drove me crazy for years, and kept me from wearing shorts back when I otherwise had the legs to do sow. I say "had" because I took a heavy fall about 10 weeks ago in the kitchen, chipped the edge of my tibial outside and below the knee, and landed hard enough to knot only bruise my tibia further down the leg, but rupture a nasty knot of surface varicose veins on the outside of my calf. My whole freaking lower leg turned into one massive bruise, which has finally cleared up. My leg is not swelling or anything, though I do have knots on my knee, so I assume collateral veins are developing. I had been thinking of getting surgery to get those veins removed as they ached a lot. For anyone bothered by varicose veins, I highly recommend medical treatment as opposed to nearly breaking your leg on a wet kitchen floor. [/QUOTE]
