Suggest Treatment For Broken Blood Vessels And Varicose Veins On The Left Leg

i have broken blood vessels on the bottom of my left foot. I did not injure the foot. I have a lot of swelling due to the blood collection. I have had broken blood vessels in my hands and legs lately, but never on th bottom of my foot. I have severe varicose veins in my left leg.
Should I get this checked out. A friend suggested I should look into this due to tgis being a symptom of leukemia.

Hello dear

Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query in details .

* There are various reasons for these vessels as thin skin , exposure to
excess heat , other coagulation disorders apart from leukemia which
will usually give petechial hemorrhages rather than broken vessels more
likely .

* Need work up with basic lab tests , doppler ultrasound to evaluate the
condition and guide in accordance to that only .

Wishing you fine recovery .
Feel free to ask any further queries .

Regards .
