Question:
How do you get rid of varicose veins?

Answer:
Heredity plays a major role in determining whether you will get varicose veins. Some preventive measures include the following: exercise to strengthen the muscles that support the veins, wear support panty hose (especially during pregnancy), and avoid standing up all day. Surgery can remove varicose veins if they cause pain or are a cosmetic problem. See varicose vein surgery and varicose veins.
