I’m not really sure why this has been happening. I’m only 5 weeks and 2 days. I do work a job where I am on my feet for 8-10 hours a day. However, I’ve always worked this job and I’ve never noticed this. A huge vein is showing on my left leg🙃 thoughts?

if you havent you should definitely start wearing compression socks. havw you heard of ￼￼varicose veins? people who stand on their feet for work for 6-8+ hours a day have an increased risk of getting them in their legs so they recommend wearing compression socks to help with that. i work in dog grooming and thats how i found that out about 4 yesrs ago and ive been weaeing compression socks ever since for the fear of this happening.
