What is varicose pain like?
Posted , 4 users are following.
hi,
i (female in 30s) have had bulging twisted bluish veins on my left ankle for years now. i never realized it and never had any issues. i am overweight but i do exercise regularly. i wear compression socks as suggested by my doctor. i showed my leg to try doctors last year and they didn't think it was worrisome. they asked me to lose weight and not to lift very heavy.
recently i changed my workout pattern with more leg workouts and i experience pain on my left leg. it has become more frequent now. the thing is i have mild sciatica on the same side. i can't figure if it's sciatica or varicose legs that is the cause of the pain. the pain is from thigh to foot with occasional pins and needles at the bottom of the foot. there's cramping, and heaviness like varicose.
no swelling. no other changes.
any body has any thoughts on this?
thanks
