Hi I have spider veins on the back of my legs... im in good shape and good health. I exercise and eat pretty healthy. Does anyone know of any way to get rid of these veins, lessen their appearance or stop them from forming?
Thanks!

when sitting, don't cross your legs, it cuts off the circulation

When I turned 28 I already had been in pain, embarrassed, and scared of becoming pregnant. I didn't want my big blue varicose veins to get worse. The All Natural Varicose & Spider Vein Solution program was an easy read and easy to do. Within 21 days there was a big difference in how my legs looked and I can wear shorts without feeling embarrassed. I feel so much better with more energy and for giving me back a healthier body, and the legs that a 28 year old should have.
Naturally heal your veins?

It's definitely hereditary and I'm afraid they'll come wether you want them or not. lol. I have those and have actually had a large varicose vein removed from my left leg (because it was extremely painful). Go see a vein specialist and see what they can do. But what I've noticed for myself--if you have to stand on your feet for more than a few hours every day, try wearing some support hose (not the most comfortable but worth it in the long run, trust me, b/c those spider veins were just the begining for me), and try to sit and put your feet up (at a 45 degree angle to your body--like sitting in a chair and putting your feet on your desk)--for 10-15 minutes. Don't cross your legs when you sit. And if you sit at a desk all day, get up every couple hours to walk around, but if you can't, simply flexing and pointing your feet will help work the muscles in your legs and help push the blood back upwards.

Varicose veins are hereditary. Sometimes you can get injections to lessen their appearance, but it's not a permanent solution. There is a new laser technique you can have done, but it's apparently very costly. Go to a place that advertises laser treatments for the face, laser hair removal, and services like that and ask them about your veins.

I am glad someone else does I am 22 and have the same thing, I have heard it helps to wear support hose but I can't wear those da*n things so I have been told the only option I have is to get them removed by a dr., I don't even think it costs too much, good luck

My mother had this problem and she had her spider/thread veins treated by the new veinwave technique. If you type Veinwave into your search engine, you should be able to find out more about this procedure and also, your nearest salon. The treatment is very successful by the way. Good luck!

I have observed that my veins flatten out when I do the Shoulderstand (Sarvangasana) in Yoga. It will help. Learn from a good teacher.

They need to be lasered or injected to get rid of them, or stop them from getting worse. No cream or anything else will take care of them.

Try tanning. Mine are not so visible in the summer.

Go to a dermatologist.
