varicose veinsFrom: Becky (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 11 Nov 1997 16:15:06 -0600 (CST)
I have been experiencing a "squeezing" sensation of pressure in certain areas of my legs recently, especially right below and behind the knees. It feels vascular in origin. I have had two blood clots, one in each lower leg this past summer following liposuction of the thighs. Two months ago I underwent abdominal surgery (hysterectomy, Burch, and a&p repairs). I have recently noticed the beginnings of spider and vericose veins. I'm 34 y/o. Question: What is the primary cause of vericose veins? What can a person who has just begun to notice them do to prevent them .... or at least slow their seeming inevitability? Can undergoing abdominal surgery bring them on earlier? Thanks in advance,
-- Becky
