Spider Vein Problem…?

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010 at 9:48 am  
Comments (2)

I have a spider vein on the back of my leg. It is a dark blue and purplish color. I have had it since I was 12 and I am now 21. I haven’t been able to wear shorts, skirts, or dresses in public because of it. I plan on getting medical treatment for it when I acquire the money, but I’m not there yet. Are there any products or home remedies that I could use to reduce the appearance of it? I have tried many types of makeup to try and cover it, but it is still very visible. Any ideas, suggestions, etc. would be helpful. Thanks!

Tattoo and skin damage/ spider vein questions?

Sunday, April 25th, 2010 at 4:48 pm

I am female. I’m almost 37, and I have spider veins coming in quite well. Looking at my parents, I will have many more inches of skin on my legs that will get hideous spider veins.

I know I can get treatment to remove the spider veins, but I know that I will just get them more and more until I finally become one huge spider vein pulsing in my wheelchair in the nursing home, frightening the nurses.

I am also very white, and have numerous scars on my legs from dry skin.

Every winter, no matter how much lotion I put on my legs, they become irritated, dry, itchy,, and I have red and white scars from the dry skin.

I was considering getting tattoos from my feet to my knees to cover the spider veins and scars.

So:

How well does tattoos hold up to minor skin damage? Can you see spider veins through tattoos?
LOL- yes, it’s radical, but not 100% out of the park. I knew I wanted to get a tattoo- but not until I found one that i was willing to live with for the rest of my life. because no symbol reached out and grabbed me, I am still completely tattoo free. I have known I wanted botanical (flowers, vines, leaves) what WHAT at its core.. its ok- this would only be ‘ground foilage’ for my icky skin…. and I am still in the considering stage, weighing everything.

I’ve had a spider vein on my lip for as long as I can remember. About every 3 years it pops and blood goes everywhere, it’s kinda gross. Haha, I’ve seen doctors and everything and they said it’s fine, but I’m just wondering if theres anything I can do to try and treat it, without laser treatments, like put something on it.
Thanks

I have a red cluster under my right eye that I’ve had forever. It’s a spider vein. Is there anyway to reduce the redness of it without using a ton of makeup? I plan on getting it removed, however, I’m nervous about the bruises that the laser treatment might leave, so I just want a way to reduce the redness of it for the time being.
Please, only serious answers.

A Few Common And Some Uncommon Varicose Vein Surgery Complication

Friday, March 5th, 2010 at 7:21 am  
Comments Off

Varicose veins cause people a number of problems including aching in legs, skin rashes, brown stains on the skin as well as skin ulcers and blood clotting. Using varicose vein surgery is an option and which type of surgery you are recommended will depend on certain tests as well as on results of ultrasound scans. Varicose vein surgery takes the form of ligation and vein stripping and phlebectomy.

Generally Safe Procedure

It makes sense to understand the possible varicose vein surgery complications you will have to deal with before choosing this option. No doubt, varicose vein surgery is generally believed to be safe though as with all types of surgeries there are a few varicose vein surgery complications worth learning about of which some are commonly noticed while others are quite uncommon. Among the common varicose vein surgery complications are infections which are more likely to occur if the patient happens to be also suffering from skin ulcers.

Another varicose vein surgery complication is that of blood clotting which usually develop in the deeper veins. Finally, another common varicose vein surgery complication is suffering from bleeding and certain amount of bruising.

The good news as far as varicose veins surgery is concerned is that almost all such surgeries are rather straightforward and even though a large number of such surgeries are being performed each and every day the numbers of varicose vein surgery complications noticed are very few. However, no surgery can be absolutely free of complications and varicose veins surgery is no exception.

Among the more uncommon varicose vein surgery complications you can include anesthetic complications which though they rarely occur (because the time taken to perform varicose vein surgery is too short for the patient to be heavily anesthetized) are still worth learning about. Other uncommon varicose vein surgery complications that can occur include problems with the cardiac system as too the respiratory system and these are caused by general anesthetic; more so, when the patient is of an advanced age or has pre-existing chest or heart problems.

Another possible and uncommon varicose vein surgery complication that you will need to contend with is that of an abnormal reaction or even turning allergic to the anesthetic being used; however, these instances too are few and far between and they cannot be predicted either.

Varicose vein surgery stripping is a type of varicose vein surgery that is used when the instance of varicose vein is severe and the treatment of which requires specialized treatment.

Among the other more uncommon varicose vein surgery complications that you will need to know about you can include damage to surrounding structures, deep vein thrombosis. However, wound infection is more common.
