Varicose Veins

Ok, I’m 37 y.o. and have had 4 children. I started with a large varicose vein in my left upper thigh area and it got worse with each pregnancy. It doesn’t hurt, but it’s very ugly. Is there anything that can help to minimize the appearance? Thanks in advance!

  • titusclan, if you start the trampoline thing, make sure that you exercise your intimate muscles. Otherwise you’ll do serious damage to yourself.

  • Wow, I didn’t know it also strenghtens the pelvic muscles. My Hungarian trainer, who protected her method and measures the effect of her training with gynecologists recommends that all exercises involving shaking or jumping should only be done if your pelvic muscles are also trained and strong. I horseride, so I took her advice and can definitely feel the difference.

  • taking horse chestnut, bilberry, or grape seed extract (or all of them in some sort of blend) will help with capillary and vein strength!

    There are ways to reduce varicose veins. Compression stockings help circulation. Elevating legs can be beneficial. Exercise like walking improves blood flow. Medical treatments may be needed for severe cases.
