Does anyone have any tips for painful Varicose Veins during pregnancy?


We are almost 28 weeks along and the varicose veins on my right leg is starting to give me some discomfort that occasionally developes into pain.

I'll be seeing my Doctor on Monday so I'll discuss with her then but in the meantime, any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Hi,Thanx for asking this question! I'm 18 weeks along and have varicose veins on my right leg and they are itching and aching alot, I see my doctor on monday 2. will be interesting to find out what I can do to better it!

I'm not sure if you'll get this, 18 weeks rego and counting, but I wanted to let you know my doctor suggested a good quality pair of stockings (that we we call them in Australia, i'm not sure where you're located...) that will support the veins.

Good luck with your pregnancy!
