What treatments are there for thread veins and what causes them?
I have a number of little thread veins on my left thigh. I've had them since I was about 13 (now 24) but they are gradually starting to spread and become more noticeable. Is there anyway to treat them? Also what causes them? Someone once told me it was caused by lack of activity but although I sit down a lot at work I am on the go pretty much all the rest of the time and I got to the gym three times a week.
Thread veins have no real effect on your health, they just look a bit odd, but you can have them lasered away, also I noticed a cream once called Spider legs or something that was meant to get rid of them, but to be honest they are there for life, and ususally they are so small no one can notice them!
