To ask about these veins?

So I am 32 and have these terrible varicose veins in my legs, I absolutely hate them and am so self conscious about them! Is there something wrong with me? They appeared after pregnancy? Is there anything I can do?

I must add that I can’t get a good picture, they are quite prominent but must be the light in the room.

Yes they are varicose veins, often caused in pregnancy. They can be fixed. I would speak to your GP but I suspect they would have to be treated privately.

I have these too and I’m 38.. I only have 1 child and I had my veins before I had her so that’s not the cause
my mums got them bad so could run in family but my mums had 4 children so not sure about hers
il upload pic when I find it

They ache so bad most days, I have no stretch marks from pregnancy and managed to get back to a size 8. Do they pose a threat to my health?
