I turned 36 last July. I’ve been pretty sedentary for most of my adult life. Even more so the past few years. Depression hasn’t helped. I’m pretty confident this explains the rapid accumulation of spider veins on my feet. The thing is, they’re spreading to my stomach and upper arms. Other than excercise, which I am doing now, what are my options?

Yeah it doesn’t really seem worth it with this dumpster fire of an economy.

    Yeah. I had it done a few years ago. $400 and they’re all back.

    Def ask your gp about possible underlying causes though, if you can. They’re almost always just a cosmetic thing, but can be a sign of Venous insufficiency, which is treatable and covered by insurance.
