Go to a dermatologist who specializes in this condition. My sister went to one and they injected the vessels with water and they collapsed (meaning the vein went away).

rob answers:

Spider veins, or varicose veins, are blood vessels that are dilated for certain reasons. Once they appear (they get big enough to be seen), they probably will not disappear by itself.

Best thing to do is to see a Dermatologist. They can zap those spider veins out. There is no natural remedies that I am aware of to treat varicose veins.

rob answers:

The only way to get rid of them is with a laser treatment. I’ve had it done, and it works great.

rob answers:

Dont use any extremes of heat or cold on it. Cool flannels are fine but an ice pack could cause damage to the already traumatised skin cells. It will take a while longer to settle down. Think of it as a burn and that will give you an idea of time scale. I would say at least a couple of weeks to dull down.
The doctor needs to be more realistic and/or get his facts right!!!;

rob answers:

The surgery reduces the spider veins but sometimes doesn’t make them completely go away. I have some too, and I’m only a teenager. The surgery is kind of expensive, but you can get a special type a shot inserted into your spider veins, and it will make it go away.

rob answers:

Sounds like age is catching up with you – – sorry!

rob answers:

No, a hot shower cannot CAUSE spider veins…however, it can cause existing spider veins to dilate and expand…but that is only temporarily. No worries.

rob answers:

Spider veins – known in the medical world as telangiectasias or sunburst varicosities – are small, thin veins that lie close to the surface of the skin. Although these super-fine veins are connected with the larger venous system, they are not an essential part of it.

A number of factors contribute to the development of spider veins, including heredity, pregnancy and other events that cause hormonal shifts, weight gain, occupations or activities that require prolonged sitting or standing, and the use of certain medications.

Spider veins usually take on one of three basic patterns. They may appear in a true spider shape with a group of veins radiating outward from a dark central point; they may be arborizing and will resemble tiny branch-like shapes; or they may be simple linear and appear as thin separate lines. Linear spider veins are commonly seen on the inner knee, whereas the arborizing pattern often appears on the outer thigh in a sunburst or cartwheel distribution.

Varicose veins differ from spider veins in a number of ways. Varicose veins are larger – usually more than a quarter-inch in diameter, darker in color and tend to bulge. Varicose veins are also more likely to cause pain and be related to more serious vein disorders. For some patients, sclerotherapy can be used to treat varicose veins. However, often surgical treatment is necessary for this condition.Serious medical complications from sclerotherapy are extremely rare when the procedure is performed by a qualified practitioner. However, they may occur. Risks include the formation of blood clots in the veins, severe inflammation, adverse allergic reactions to the sclerosing solution and skin injury that could leave a small but permanent scar.

A common cosmetic complication is pigmentation irregularity – brownish splotches on the affected skin that may take months to fade, sometimes up to a year. Another problem that can occur is “telangiectatic matting,” in which fine reddish blood vessels appear around the treated area, requiring further injections.

You can reduce the risks associated with treatment by choosing a doctor who has adequate training in sclerotherapy and is well versed in the different types of sclerosing agents available. A qualified doctor can help you select which type of sclerosing medication is most appropriate for your needs.

No, if anything it relieves the pressure on your veins by toning your legs and eliminating any excess fat.

It also is pretty good for getting a tan as well. I know when I ran xc in high school, I had great tans on my legs and the rest of me from running all the time outside.

Good luck, and have a good season!

Try vitamin C, flavonoids to aid circulation, promote healing of sores, and strengthen vein walls.

B-complex to help maintain strong blood vessels.

Beta-carotene This antioxidant is a healing nutrient.

Bromelain This nutrient aids in activating a factor that promotes the breakdown of fibrin and help prevent blood clots.

Lecithin Take one tablespoon of granules (or two capsules) daily to emulsify fats and aid circulation.

Magnesium To relax the arteries and muscles in the legs.

Vitamin E Take 300 to 800 IU, in gradually increased doses, to promote and improve circulation. Vitamin E may also relieve calf pain due to narrowing of the arteries.

Zinc Take 50 mg. Daily, to assist with healing and collagen formation.

I’m not sure. It sounds like you’re retaining water or something, but I don’t know. You should definitely see your doctor just to be safe.

rob answers:

First of all you have to ask if the veins problems runs in your family? If your mom has problem with varicose or darker veins it’s just a matter of time you will have it too. Contraceptives make that problem worse. I don’t know about DP but the patch has high risk.
Remember Birth control has to be assisted by a doctor, we girls can’t be on and off the pills and shots and etc on our own, those things have rules!! Haha. No, but seriously, for example my obgyn once told me that I couldn’t stop the shot just like that, it’s dangerous, you make your body go crazy with hormones.

Just pay a visit to your doctor and you’ll be fine.

rob answers:

Yes it is a sign. I read about it in a few of my books (what to expect and I’m pregnant..i think) You can get ting red or purple spider veins (ususally a few weeks pregnant) any your areolas will become darker. I tend to get the veins around my period time when my hormone levels are high. I hope this helps! Good Luck!

It’s possible. The only for sure way to know is wait a week or two and take a test… Good luck! I hope you get the results you want.

rob answers:

The veins could be a sign of pregnancy, you do get a lot of prominent veins but usually later on. The veins could be caused by anything, especially if you stand for long periods of time. Don’t be put off by the negative pt, I had 2 negs before i had a positive. Hope that you get pregnant soon, keep positive and keep trying xxx

rob answers:

I suggest not even using unnatural products but fruits and sugar.
To open your pores boil a cup of water and 1/4 a cup of lemon juice and keep your face about 6 inches from the pot so the steam hits your face. After this for a face wash/mask use a quarter of a banana mushed up with a table spoon of honey and three table spoons of brown sugar. Let it sit on your face for 20 minutes then when wash it off rub in circular motions so the sugar can exfoliate your skin.
Then rub milk on your skin and let it dry and wash it of. Then rub lemon juice on your skin. The lemon juice will soak into your skin and after about four days of doing this your skin will be clearer brighter and softer. It really worked for me and i had the same problem as you. Hope this helps!

rob answers:

We used clomid and I can’t say if your pregnant or not only your doctor can tell you that but as far as the cramping goes I did experience alot of that, and it is because of the clomid, I had gone back to the doctor time and time again because of the cramping I had along with taking the clomid it was quite painful. As far the the veins go on your breasts, that is something that happens to me during pregnancy but not in the beginning of the pregnancy just at the end. As far as the pinkish color when you wiped that also happened to me with the clomid, a few times actually. I did get pregnant using the clomid the first month it was used, I also ended up with triplets but lost one in the first month and I now have a beautiful set of twins. Hang in there with the clomid and never hesitate to call your doctor and ask questions. Good luck conceiving I hope everything goes well for you.

rob answers:

It is way to early for spider veins to be related to pregnancy. Clomid can really mess with your body and give you lots of false postives when it comes to early pregnancy symptoms. That being said Clomid worked the first round for me. You can try an early pg test now, and if it is negative wait until you have missed your period to take another one. Sorry not much help but Clomid just does silly things to your body. Good luck and baby dust!

rob answers:

Spider veins and the pinkish blood that you had could be a sign of implantation bleeding. It sounds like the clomid worked for you. Good luck. I know that waiting to test can be very hard sometimes.

rob answers:

Eliminate junk food from the diet. Adopt a simple and nourishing diet with lots of fruits and vegetables. Fried, fatty foods and animal fats should be avoided if possible and replaced with beans, peas, legumes and soy. Eating junk food can cause waste matter to accumulate in the system, causing spider veins, varicose veins and a variety of other health conditions.

Step 2
Take a cold bath each morning upon waking. Rub the body first with a cold, wet towel and then with a dry one to get rid of spider veins naturally. This process increases circulation to the surface of the skin, which will help spider veins disappear and keep the blood flowing.

Step 3
Make a strong tea of white oak bark by steeping two tablespoons of the dried bark in one pint of boiling water for at least 30 minutes. Strain and then bathe the affected limbs in the tea before bed each night. This is an effective folk remedy that is reported to bring relief from pain associated with spider veins and expedite their healing.

Step 4
Drink a tea made of golden seal and myrrh six or seven times per day to combat spider veins naturally. Steep one teaspoon dried golden seal and ½ teaspoon dried myrrh in one pint of boiling water for 20 minutes. Strain and sweeten with honey if desired. Take a swallow of the tea once per hour, up to seven times, throughout the day.

Step 5
Combine one teaspoon each powdered hyssop, white cherry bark and yellow dock root. Mix them thoroughly, and combine 1/2 teaspoon of the mixture with ¼ cup cold water. Drink this solution followed by a glass of water as hot as you can tolerate. This treatment is recommended by American herbalist Jethro Kloss for getting rid of varicose and spider veins. He suggests taking it four times per day, one hour before each meal and once before bed.

Spider veins are actually ruptured capillaries. The ones I think you are thinking of are hemmoroids which are a vein valve which keeps blood from moving back down towards the feet has ruptured. Spider veins are like stretch marks and never really go away. Laser surgery can rid you of them. As far as hemmoroids, I would follow your doctors advice.

Not working out, bad digestion, drinking, smoking …bad diet…change all that and they will not appear again…but those you have will only become smaller

rob answers:

Have you ever thought it’s because of your diet and exercise you don’t have that much fat on you. This means the less fat on you the more veins are shown more. I suspect from somebody like yourself would be physically fit to be in the army. So i suspect it’s just normal. If you added a few extra pounds you wouldn’t see your veins anymore.

FYI: Fat isn’t just oh look he’s fat ROFLCOPTER. Fat in your life can still be a good thing. Protects organs and veins from an attack. Whereas soembody with little fat and exposed veins with a punch their could easily damage them.

Well i hope this helps i guess.

P.S: Go beat those communists for me and every other country that doesn’t like communists :3

Peace. Aza

rob answers:

Heredity, obesity, age, trauma and standing for long periods of time have all been thought to damage venous valves and therefore cause venous insufficiency (the underlying problem that causes spider veins).

Unfortunately, there aren’t any medically proven ways to totally prevent spider veins. It helps to relieve the pressure on your veins though – so wearing lose clothing, losing weight (if you are heavier) may help. It’s also a good idea to avoid sitting/standing for long periods of time…but since the spider vein is on your back this may not apply. Exercising actually helps – so don’t worry about that making it worse.

Chances are it won’t get worse, but if it really bothers you there are a bunch of treatment options a doctor can perform to remove it – most of them don’t hurt at all anymore.

rob answers:

Try dermablend brand products. They have a leg cover creme and I am 100% positive it would cover it up.

rob answers:

There are no creams that will remove spider veins. What causes them is not totally understood but some factors that predispose a person to have them include heredity; occupations that involve a lot of standing, such as nurses, beauticians, teachers, and factory workers; obesity; hormonal influences during pregnancy, puberty, and menopause; the use of birth control pills; postmenopausal hormonal replacement; a history of blood clots; conditions that cause increased pressure in the abdomen including tumors, constipation, and externally worn garments like girdles; trauma or injury to the skin; previous vein surgery; and exposure to ultraviolet rays.

rob answers:

It is estimated that almost three-quarters of all adult women have spider veins – red, blue or purple thread-like lines just under the skin. The condition is associated with increased pressure to the veins.

Since the most common causes are the normal monthly hormonal fluctuations of the female cycle and pregnancy, spider veins occur most often in women, and they often first appear during pregnancy. Other contributing factors include injuries, medications that affect hormones, and a family history of spider veins. Although it is less common, men can develop spider veins as well. The condition usually appears after age 30, although it can sometimes develop as early as the teen years.

Spider veins, or “starbursts,” are so named because the series of veins often radiates out from a central point, reminiscent of the shape of a spider. They may also appear as fine, separate lines, a web-like maze, or as “branches” from a single “tree trunk.” They can develop on any part of the body, including the face, but most often appear on the thighs, calves, or ankles.

Spider veins are caused by abnormal blood flow and weakening of the blood vessel wall in the affected veins. Any condition or activity that puts pressure on the veins — such as gaining weight, and sitting or standing for long periods of time — can contribute to their development.

While unsightliness is the most common reason for removal, spider veins may also be removed to alleviate problems with restless legs, aching, burning, and/or cramps. Spider veins are most often treated with sclerotherapy, in which a saline or chemical solution that is injected into the vein, irritating the lining and causing the vein to collapse and disappear.

In some cases, laser treatment may be used either alone or in combination with sclerotherapy.

Sclerotherapy Process

Your doctor may recommend that you avoid aspirin and alcohol, as well as herbal medications and anti-inflammatory medications, for two weeks prior to your treatment to minimize bleeding during the procedure. On the day of your treatment you will be asked not to use moisturizers, sunblock or oil on the affected area. You should wear shorts or other comfortable clothing that exposes the spider veins.

Your doctor will apply antiseptic to the area, then inject a solution into the affected veins with a very fine needle. Each injection covers about one inch of the vein. During the procedure, you may feel a slight pinch as the needle is inserted and a burning sensation as the solution is injected. Next, cotton dressing and compression tape will be applied to the area. After one area is injected and taped, the doctor will proceed to the next area.

Generally a second treatment will be required in order to complete the collapse of the vein. If you have many veins requiring treatment, multiple sessions may be required.

rob answers:

Yours is just closer to the skin than most. I would just put some cover up over them if I was you. Don’t know of any creams to get rid of them. Only a Vascular Doctor can tell you what needs to be done. I believe they can take a small needle and inject something into them that will make them vanish. Good luck.

rob answers:

You were condemned with bad genes by your parents. I don’t blame you for being primative.

rob answers:

I don’t know about you, but when I hear “spider veins” I think of, well, spiders. And spider legs. Really, really long spider legs, creepy crawling their way up my legs. Until I run out of the room screaming like a little girl and hide under the covers. Yuck. Luckily for me, this topic actually has nothing to do with spiders, just spider veins, which are actually milder and smaller versions of varicose veins, which we all know about (I think).
Spider veins, and varicose (from the latin root varix, which means twisted) veins, are veins that have become swollen and twisted from weakened or blocked circulation. Spider and varicose veins can happen anywhere in the body, but usually occur in the lower legs and feet, because of the added pressure from sitting and standing upright all day. Varicose and spider veins typically appear dark red, blue, or purple in color; varicose veins can appear to bulging beneath the skin, while spider veins will look more like webbing across the surface of the skin. Symptoms of spider and varicose veins can vary from mild irritation to severe pain (see left sidebar for more detail on symptoms). Spider and varicose veins are most common in women, especially older women, but everyone can be affected by vein abnormalities. Luckily for you, we have suggestions below for getting rid of your spider veins, and treating varicose veins and other vein abnormalities.

Treatment of Spider Veins
1)Promote healthy circulation in your legs to get rid of spider and varicose veins. Regular exercise (even just a short walk), loose clothing and low-heeled shoes, changing positions frequently and sitting with your legs uncrossed your legs (long periods of stasis and crossed legs can aggravate circulation problems), and elevating your legs above your heart when resting can all go a long way to improving your circulation and reducing the appearance and presence of spider and varicose veins in your legs.
2)Maintain a healthy weight to prevent and get rid of spider and varicose veins. Extra weight puts extra pressure on your legs, which makes healthy circulation harder for your body and can result in spider or varicose veins. Shedding those excess pounds with a healthy diet and exercise can reduce spider and varicose veins by relieving some of the pressure on your legs and increasing and improving circulation (see above).
3)Sclerotherapy is a very common treatment for spider and varicose veins in which a doctor injects small and medium affected veins with a solution that scars and closes the veins, forcing the body to redirect the circulating blood to healthy veins. After a few weeks the appearance of those affected veins should fade, and your discomfort relieved. Veins may need to be reinjected, but the outpatient procedure is fairly simple and relatively painless (no anesthesia is required).

4)Laser surgery is another common treatment for spider and varicose veins that uses intense bursts of light to fade the affected vein. Traditionally, laser surgery was used mostly for smaller veins in the face and upper body, but newly developed technology has made the procedure viable for veins in the legs. Because laser surgery is non-invasive, fast, and does not require an incision or needle, it is a popular choice for getting rid of spider and varicose veins. Multiple treatments may be necessary to fully “vanish” the veins.
5)Other, more traditional methods of surgery are also available to get rid of spider and varicose veins. These surgeries, including ambulatory phlebectomy, catheter-assisted procedures, endoscopic vein surgery, and vein stripping , are more invasive (they can require anesthesia), than sclerotherapy or laser surgery, but work effectively to remove or close the veins completely.
Complications of Spider (varicose) Veins

Gone untreated, spider and varicose veins can develop into more serious vein abnormalities and circulation problems. Other, serious, types of varicose veins include venous lakes, pooling blood in the veins of the face and neck; reticular veins, flat blue veins behind the knees; and telangiectases, reddish clusters of blood vessels on the face and upper body. Brown pigmentation can be a warning sign of skin ulcers, which can be the result of the increased pressure in the effected veins and needs immediate medical attention. Enlarged and swollen veins can cause your legs to swell also, and sudden leg swelling (with or without redness and irritation) can be indicative of a blood clot, a serious medical condition known as thrombophlebitis, which requires immedate attention.

rob answers:

Don’t worry, it’s completely normal. Visible veins have to do with genes and hereditary traits (usually from your mother’s side) There’s really no way to get rid of them, but you can use a couple methods to fade them a bit.

-Rub vinegar on the worst areas everyday, then go over the area with a moisturizing lotion
-Use self tanner. This helps hide them
-Cover up. Isn’t very permanent, but helps to make them appear less prominent if you want to wear shorts or a dress
-You can get them injected with saline, this is more expensive, about $200-$400
-Surgery. From what I’ve been told it is very painful, but the results are relatively permanent

Hope this helps

rob answers:

You can’t do anything about the ones you have now unless you get laser surgery but you can help prevent more. You can wear compression stockings, don’t stand in one spot for long periods of time or sit for long periods of time. Do flexing exercises to increase circulation, quit smoking if you smoke and if your female talk to your doc about birth control alternatives if your using them.

You should talk to your doc anyway as there may be an underlying problem causing your poor circulation. Don’t take this to lightly. If you got a blood clot it could be deadly or at the very least painful (I know both by experience as I have protein C deficiency and have had DVT and surface clots).
Good luck and good health.

rob answers:

If you look in your telephone book you will probably find a specialist that can get rid of them. We have a vein clinic in our area and a Specialist that does other things along with spider veins. She also uses lasers but its probably according to where the spider veins are located.
Sometimes it is covered by insurance but sometimes not as many times it is considered cosmetic problem.

My sister had it done on her legs and they just used tiny needles and injected saline (salt) solution into each tiny spider vein and they then disappear. She said it didn’t hurt it was just a tiny sting. She didn’t have to wrap her legs or do anything and wasn’t told to walk (You only do those things for VARICOSE VEINS which are the deep veins that stick out or look like lumps on your legs when you have them)

I also have spider veins and I was told by someone that I should dip a cloth in warmed vinegar and put it on the veins for about 15 minutes as that would make them disappear after a few weeks. I have way to many spider veins all over my thighs and legs to try this so I haven’t bothered. I would try it if I just had a few patches.

I was also told to take Vitamin E by mouth and to rub Vitamin E on the area as that would thin the blood out in that area and cause them to disappear. I have thin blood already so can’t use Vitamin E, but if I didn’t I would try it.
(CAUTION- I would try rubbing a tiny amount of the Vitamin E on the inside of one of your wrist for 24 hours to make sure you aren’t allergic to it before rubbing it on your veins as a few people are allergic to Vitamin E. If you notice redness, swelling, itching or blisters on your wrist, then you are allergic and shouldn’t use it and should wash it off with soap and water, dry the area and apply an over the counter antibiotic cream)

I am much much older than you and I have so many spider veins that I haven’t worn a swin suit in years and I love the water and live near the beach, so when I have the money I do want to have my veins done.

Good luck and hope some of these ideas work for you.

rob answers:

Talk to your doctor about them, but the only treatment i’m aware of is laser surgery and you probably wouldn’t be able to have that done until you are through with the pregnancy.
