What Causes Legs, Ankles And Shin Veins Prominence With Small Lumps?

Green long veins have started showing on my legs. From ankles to calves and also up my shins. Also small bumps, like mosquito bites on my shins,. I m 52 years old,49kgs and always been exercising. Have stopped. Since a year due to knee pain. My legs are rather skinny. Will running help?

Hi,Dear.Thanks for the query to HCM virtual clinic.
I studied your query in all its details and understood your health concerns.
In my opinion the cause of the leg veins and lumps -seems to be Chronic Compartmental Tension due to the exercising.
I would advise you to reduce stressful exercising.Jogging/ or walking for 20 minutes per day for 6 wks would reduce this leg veins and small lumps.
I would advise to consult ER Sports Doctor, who would treat it accordingly.
Hope this would reply your query to your satisfaction.
