OK, yet another thread by me....

For a few months, I've noticed purply type bruises around the back of my left leg. They get worse if I sit on my legs (which I do a lot of) and better if I sit with my legs spread out.

I think they might be spider veins, but I'm not sure. They never hurt, itch, or do anything. In the time I've had them, they've not got worse, just not really got much better either.

I'm at the doctors on Friday should I mention them? :shrug: Of course, the anxious part of me says it might be something serious, but the logical part of me reasons that if it were, it would hurt or have done something by now.

I'm vowing to get more active, and not sit on my legs for an entire week and see if there's any improvement made. If so, I've identified a potential cause, and possibly a cure.

But of course, this accompanied by my multiple fading moles, and my anxiety is through the roof. :doh:

It might be useful to mention them :) Then the doctor can confirm what they are and it might help to settle your anxiety a bit.
