Chris in VA Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 My legs are slimming down a bit b/c of dog walking. I've had some trouble with my left leg, up in the thigh near the hip; it sometimes feels like a sharp cramp. Just today, I noticed what may be varicose vein-- Any ideas?

klmama Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Are you stretching that area well each day? One good stretch may be to sit on the floor with right leg out, set the left foot on the outside of the right leg by the thigh/hip, and hug your knee. You should feel a good stretch through your left upper thigh and hip. Repeat on the other side. If the pain is caused by veins, that won't help at all. If it's muscular, it may.
