I've had a serious increase of spider veins in my right leg. A few months ago I noticed a tiny patch about the size of a quarter. It's now spread about half way around my thigh just little scatters of spider veins. Could pole and hoop be the culprits? I've never had them before now.

I don't know what causes them, but my legs are covered in spider veins (always have been). I always wonder if they are the reason that I bruise so easily. My legs are black and blue after every session, more so than any of the other girls.
Spider veins are veins that are really close to the surface of your skin that have swollen up when that vein has had high pressure. so it's likely johnssdeere that you always had those veins close to the surface of your skin but they've only just 'swollen' now and turned into spider veins. I think they're just genetic, I don't think that activities can cause them. (this might be different with varicose veins though?) If anything, I think that being inactive would lead to more because in that case your circulation might not be as good. I have spider veins as well, little patches of them on my legs that look like bruises, and on my cheeks and eyelids. I don't bruise that easily at all, Jenn1989, so I don't know if that's the culprit of your easy bruising. Have you been tested for an iron deficiency?
You guys are mind readers...I was just telling my guy about this last night, I have more and more on my left leg, and they are right where my leg is pushed against the pole continuously...I am also seeing more of this on my feet near my ankles. It seems pole related, but is there anything we can really do to stop this from happening?
I know there aretreawnts lasers, saline type injections but they could reappear. I am severely anemic and have always been.
Wow iPhone on the fritz that was supposed to say there are treatments*
