Kate asked: I’ve had varicose veins for some time now. I’ve recently started going on long walks for exercise. The past few days, my veins have made my left leg feel very heavy and tingly. It’s never done that before. Should I stop going on the long walks? I’d hate to give it up.
Just a little bit more info: I’m still young (30), not very physically active except for the walking, I’m 6′ tall (I hide my weight well) and I’ve lost about 50 pounds this year. I have another 50-60 to go before I’m really skinny. *lol*
Varicose veins are hereditary. I got mine from my mom’s side of the family (they’re all skinny).
