Oestrogel site has varicose vein

I've just started on oestrogel and much prefer to apply it on my inner thigh. I have a massive varicose vein on one inner thigh and have just clocked that applying it over the vein might be a problem?

My veins have always been there. Got some on my calves stripped out but after pregnancy they reappeared on my upper thigh. My mother had them too. They're asymptomatic thankfully. I'd like to start another thread about what to do about them:)

In the meantime any insights into applying oestrogel on top of a varicose vein would be appreciated. Would the outer thigh work?

I am afraid I don't have any advice but I do have the same problem so am watching with interest. Hopefully somebody else with have words of wisdom.
