You'd Really like to Know What Causes Spider Veins

You're happy that you've got such nice legs. They're nice and long, as well as smooth. You are definitely proud of them, but you also know that genetics won't let them be that nice forever. Your mother, grandmother, and all of your aunts have chunky legs with imperfections, and you just know that you'll be next.

Specifically, you'd like to know what causes spider veins, since that's the main problem with all the legs in your family. So, you go to your most reliable source, your mother, and ask her if she wouldn't mind telling you what causes spider veins.

She tells you that there's no one thing as to what causes spider veins. Rather, there are lots of reasons, but she thinks that the main reason as to what causes spider veins is weight gain. She then does something she often does – she starts talking about the past.

She tells you that she used to have legs just like yours, until she became pregnant with your older brother. The weight gain, as well as always being on her feet, definitely contributed to those dreaded veins. She then gave you a word of warning.

Her finger pointed ominously at you. You knew that a lecture was coming. She said that only do the veins start showing up because a person's on their feet so much, it can also happen because they sit too much behind a desk too. Well, that was more than enough of an incentive to get you taking daily walks!
