Varicose veins are painful, aren't they? My dad has one in the leg he broke the ankle on years ago. I'm not sure if the pain is from the vein or the old fracture. He has talked about having something done about the vein, but never followed up.
I am fascinated by these procedures, so I will be interested to hear how it goes for you. The old-fashioned stripping I never understood. How do they take out leg veins and have the body/skin still work??
My maternal grandmother has legs that look like roadmaps. I take after dad's side of the family and have arm veins that pop out when I am hot. I've had a little spider webbbing appear on my legs when I'm not getting the right nutrients, but they go away.
