I just got some taken care of at the doctor by ECHO. They inject a foam into the vein that blocks it off, then you body re-absorbs the now blocked off veins.

I had one that looked like half a monkey brain on the inside of my leg, and got tired of answering questions every time I had shorts on.

I personally don't think there is much that can be done, it's genetic. Mom had them and i've got wicked vascularity. hope i don't have problems when i gets old.

My husband had the injection thing done in Jan and had to wear the tight stockings up to his upper quads. They were a biotch to get on and he had problems wearing them in warm climates when he was traveling and on the planes for very long periods, his toes went numb. He gave up wearing them and did not get that great of results. Now that Ontario summers are here he won't give it a try again till fall.

I'd be wary. My mother had her veins done and 6days later she was dead. She did have a historectomy the day before she died and the stress of the surgery caused a blood clot to release the day after surgery and hit her heart..... While I can't be sure that the vein surgery caused the clot, there is a LOT online that suggests it could have.

historectomy is serious, she died from stress bro. Sorry to hear that.

My gf had surgery to remove the veins from her legs. They used these long thin pieces of steel, slid the down into the leg starting at the waste. Then they pulled the veins out one by one. Ya cant even see the scars now, she was bedridden for a week.
