Hi, sorry for all my posts! I just found this site and am trying hard not to google.
I am going to a dermatologist in a week and a half, so I will bring this up when I am there, but I am getting very anxious about this. I have tiny capillaries that are suddenly visible on top of my skin on one of my feet right below my ankle. At first it was just a small patch of them and I thought it was a red rash/discoloration until I looked up close and they were tiny blood vessels! but it seems like they are spreading now. Now it is like 3 clumps of visible capillaries below my ankle. Is this something like spider veins because of standing? I'm just nervous because I remember my mom being nervous about her visible capillaries on her legs and thinking they were lupus for some reason.
Please respond, as I really don't want to google and freak myself out like crazy.
