Throbbing In The Same Spot At The Back Of Calf During Periods, Numerous Broken Veins In The Same Area. Possible Causes?

Im 43 and every time i get my period i have throbbing in my right leg in the same place in the back of my calf . I usually end up having to put surgical compression hose on to get relief. It has happened as long as i can remember sometimes worse than others. I also have a lot of broken veins in the same area. I have even been to a vascular surgeon who shot a vein behind my knee with a solution thinking that would help. didnt help and its so frusturating. Any insight on this would be so appreciated. Thanks

Pregnancy can be linked to backache varicose vein. It can happen due to pressure on spinal chord pressure in inferior veinacava leading to varicose vein. Can take paracetamol tablet. Injection neurobion for ten days. You will improve if you change your life style. Be physically active. Start having slow morning walk.
