Varicose veins

Hey I have alot of them on my left leg and a one on my right from pregnancy years ago unfortunately when pregnant they do tend to get worse due to the increased blood volume in our bodies, mines have this Time around again. Try having your feet elevated for some of the day also I've started wearing compression socks for a couple hours a day as advised by my midwife. Also don't sit/stand for too long at a time as this won't help the blood flow. Sorry you are feeling so self conscious I have never bothered about mine until this pregnancy and I feel the same 👎 the NHS don't take them away now unless they are causing extreme pain xx

I haven’t any advice but my mine are the exact same and getting worse and worse… I mentioned them to the midwife and she just said wear compression socks… not really ideal 🙈🙈

mine are in the left leg too and can see one starting in the right. Ah thank you, I shal get myself some compression socks, I have an office job which really doesn't help either!
I guess it's just another part of what we have to put up with when we have grown a human, like stretch marks! Hope they don't get you down too much x

ah I'm sorry to hear! I suppose that's all we can do 😐 x

I have an office job too defo isn't ideal hun, I also have burst veins (dont think thats the right name for them lol) they look a bit like bruises on my leg but they never go away either 🙃 got a 3 pack of support socks of amazon for £4.99 black ones they are fab, hope it doesn't get you down too much either 🩷xx

ah I have one of those on my ankle, only a small one at the moment and wondered what it was! Oh brill, thank you I will have a look 😊 xx
